The first section is a brief introduction of Carmen Laforet’s life and works. The second section deals with the atmosphere in the house where main characters live in. The last section relates to the writing style and main characters of this novel Nada. Chapter 3 is divided into three sections as well. Maruja Torres’s life and works are presented in the first section. The second section describes the area “BARRIO” where main characters live around. The last section relates to the writing style and the main characters of novel Un calor tan cercano. Chapter 4, coming along with three sections, is the comparison of female characters, novelistic themes, and living space in the outstanding works.
