Abstract

This article sets out to expose two central issues based on a story by Matilde Sánchez. The first one concerns literature as a space where legacies acquire form, become current and renew themselves. The second one refers to the return as an experience that erases the possibility of belonging and demands a critical distance from notions of origin and home. In this sense, the article reviews the functioning of the economy of travel: the capital it generates, the losses and profitsm the assets and yield.
