"First Memories" is a classic of Spanish literature. It is a coming-of-age novel, a story of childhood clashing with reality. In terms of power, it can be compared to the novel "The Catcher in the Rye" by J. D. Salinger. The action of the novel takes place in Mallorca with its beautiful nature in the terrible war year of 1936. The main character, Matia, finds herself on the island, in a strange house, in an unfamiliar atmosphere of despotism, which she resists. The girl sees how the internal aggression of each of the inhabitants grows. Despite the disturbing atmosphere, teenagers live adventures and their secrets, without completely losing their purity, innocence and magical power of imagination. Ana Maria Matute wrote during one of the most difficult cultural periods in the history of Spain, a period of rejection of the old ideology and the creation of new intellectual traditions.
