Contemporary literature in Spain
 
Characteristics
 
From 1975 to the present date, in contemporary Spanish literature there is a 
preeminence of the novel over other genres. The historical novel and the adventure 
novel, among others, dominate the literary scene.
It also covers topics that have been banned in the past, such as sexual freedom and 
other related topics. This literary production is regulated by the publishing markets 
and the literature awards.
In the same vein, literature now has a strong link with film production. In the 
adaptations, the filmmakers try to insert touches of the Spanish heritage and the 
peculiarities of this society.
