Civil War in Zúñiga’s Short Stories

Abstract

Zúñiga hace confluir en sus relatos sobre la Guerra Civil española sus experiencias y la gran veta simbolista de la literatura moderna. Sus relatos se fundan en anécdotas personales, pero reciben un tratamiento simbólico, a la vez hermético y humorístico. Estos relatos conforman ciclos de cuentos que adquieren formas novelísticas.

In his short stories about the Spanish Civil War, Zúñiga brings together his experiences and the great symbolist vein of modern literature. His stories are based on personal anecdotes, but receive a symbolic treatment, as well as hermetic and comic. These stories make up short story cycles that acquire novelistic forms.
