Ramon Sender: Perceptions of a Lifein Spanish
Perhaps Spains best-known novelist before the Spanish Civil War, Ramon Sender
belonged to the social narrative and existential schools and was a member of the vaunted
Generation of 1925. When his wife and family were killed in the war, he fled into exile
during which time he wrote some of his finest works. In this program, location footage,
archival photos, and realia are combined with the thoughtful commentary of literary critic
Rafael Conte, writers Jose Luis Castillo Puche and Francisco Carrasquer, family members,
and friends in a discussion of Senders rich record of accomplishment. His 64 novels
and numerous short stories, plays, poems, and essays were each a journey of discovery as
he explored social injustice, faith and redemption, and his new life in the New World.
