A compelling volume of personal correspondence in which Elena Fortún describes her early years in exile in Buenos Aires (1940–1941). Writing to her son and daughter-in-law, she shares her hopes, disappointments, and what she viewed as her literary failure in a new country. Despite adversity, she continues writing children’s books (including installments of the Celia saga), articles, and essays, while forging bonds with fellow Spanish exiles. This second volume offers an intimate, historically significant portrait of exile, resilience, and creative persistence.
