Sumario:[EN] This paper offers a biographical approach to the Catalan writer and exile Mercedes Comaposada Guillén, through an unpublished epistolary network that begins in the 1940s. Specifically, it analyzes the space of solidarity and affection shaped by the author and other women closely connected to the cultural and literary scene of Spain in the second half of the 20th century, both within and beyond its national borders. Carmen Conde, Consuelo Berges, and Justina Ruiz de Conde are the central figures in this preliminary reconstruction of Guillén’s life, still in progress. The importance of this study lies in the limited information available about Comaposada, particularly vague after her exile in Paris, where she remained until her death. These letters reveal previously unknown experiences that enhance our understanding of Guillén’s life journey, as well as the cultural, personal, and emotional networks woven by women whose convictions transcended the geographic, temporal, and ideological divides imposed by the Spanish Civil War.
