It was then, during the last throes of social realism in Spanish literature, that <em>Destino </em>held up the example of Cunqueiro as an alternative literary trend. In this study, we will analyse how Catalan literary critics (Guillermo Díaz-Plaja, Antonio Vilanova, Néstor Luján and Joan Perucho) defended the Galician writer’s work through the pages of <em>Destino</em>.<br /> ER -
