Public presentation of the book Notes for an inventory of Carmen Martín Gaite by the portraitist Lisbeth Salas, with which the Ministry of Culture culminated a long program of activities with the aim of recognizing one of the key writers of 20th century Spanish narrative.

The day was organized around two tables, the first about the publication itself and everything that has surrounded it: meetings, surprises, discoveries…
The second part is about the allure of her writing, the reasons behind her choice of themes, and those aspects of her life that might seem little known to many, and which will be discussed by great connoisseurs of her work, those who came to know and enjoy it.

All of this will take place around a discussion that will aim to introduce this fun, vibrant, free woman, the master of her own destiny.
