Abstract

The novel Tierra de mujeres (Seix Barral, 2019) written by María Sánchez dazzles the current literary panorama. Because of its contemporaneity with feminist vindication and its rejection of a bucolic vision of the countryside, the novel Tierra de mujeres has the strength of an intellectual commitment to memory and the emancipation of women. At the same time as an essay against the deculturation that threatens our societies and a manifesto for the rehabilitation of women -disappeared in all discourses on the countryside-, María Sánchez's novel provides a novel vision -by being anchored in the reality of the margins- on the inferiorization and marginalization of women in a world of masculine power.
