Escribir antes

Synopsis of Escribir antes

In 'Escribir antes', Sabina Urraca shares the creative process of her novel 'El celo', stripping the writing profession of its solemnity and revealing its most neurotic and compulsive side. The book feeds on the desire to write with the innocence and lack of ambition of the beginnings, when writing was a game without pretensions. Through diary chapters, poems, street scenes and ideas for unfinished novels, Urraca immerses us in the tragicomedy of writing, showing that books are also built in parks, sidewalks and everyday conversations.
