Sacred realism: religion and the imagination in modern spanish narrative

In this thoughtful and compelling book, leading Spanish literature scholar Noël Valis re-examines the role of Catholicism in the modern Spanish novel. While other studies of fiction and faith have focused largely on religious themes,Sacred Realism views the religious impulse as a crisis of modernity: a fundamental catalyst in the creative and moral development of Spanish narrative. Thoroughly researched, multidimensional, and spanning three centuries of Spanish literature, Sacred Realism is certain to become a classic in its field.
