Seven sheets of paper with their tight handwriting and their erasures that are exhibited for the first time. The star piece is the first pages of the 'Nada' manuscript. On display until May 29, the exhibition traces Laforet's life and creative career through more than two hundred pieces: unpublished manuscripts, documents, articles, family photographs, paintings, letters, audiovisuals, drawings, personal objects such as his typewriter, -a blue Olivetti-, his pen, and various editions of his other books, eclipsed by the importance of 'Nada'.
In the 'Laforet Year' the Instituto Cervantes and Acción Cultural Española (AC/E) dedicate the exhibition 'Next Destination' to her, which reviews the figure and work of the writer, claiming her as one of the most influential of the 20th century. Carmen Laforet (1921-2004) is much more than the author of 'Nada', the novel that shook the gray and lethargic post-war literary panorama and consecrated its young author with the Nadal Prize in 1944.
