I don’t have that much left to do in the book. I have finished the chapters on:
1. Spanish Civil War and dictatorship.
2. Economic crisis of 2008-2012 and corruption.
3. EU membership and what a letdown that’s been.
4. Neoliberalism and globalization.
5. Ukrainian writers who write in Spanish.
All I have left is Catalonian and Basque separatism. And the conclusion. The intro us mostly done but, as always, I’m having trouble finishing strong. I’ll do something very personal and intense in the conclusion to avoid a watered-down finish.
The title is Contemporary Spanish Literature for Ukrainians, and my dream is to do a series, adding Contemporary Latin American and Contemporary American literature.
And no, I don’t want this book to be published in translation to any language. The things I say there, I’d be immediately unpersonned everywhere except in Ukraine. The whole point is to give me a chance to say things I can’t say aloud.

The headings read like a history text to my highly naive eye, but the title has literature in it. Are the chapters about literature from that period?

Thank you for your interest!
The chapter titles reflect the main topics that Spanish writers explore in their fiction. There’s a genre of the Civil War novel. A genre of literature of the crisis. A genre of novels about the EU. And so on. These are the main themes that Spanish readers want to read about. These are also the topics I’m most interested in when I choose my readings.
