Abstract

Under the dictatorship, the narrative fictions that established divergent memories about the conflict and the repression, outside the dictates of Franco’s official discourse, were only possible from the position of exile. Ramón J. Sender was one these expatriate writers who problematized power, betrayal and revenge as keys of the politic struggle. We propose to analyze the voices of the denunciation based on the perpetrator characters of El vado (1948) and Mosén Millán (1953). In doing so, we intend to empathize the Sender’s literary project of creating a marginal memory to the official stories that, as a counterweight, had the attraction of the popular culture.
