- Abstract:
- In La meitat de l'ànima and Temps d'innocència Carme Riera looks to the family album and personal history to reconcile with Spain's turbulent past. The fictionalization of history emphasizes the unstable nature of the past and the improbability of "truth." Through letters and photographs the past lives in the present yet remains elusive as memory works in revisionist ways on what was thought as factual and permanent.
