These maps are works in progress. My goal is to reveal the intertextual nature of novelistic spaces, while also "illuminating" the text itself with spatial information via a visual gazetteer of spatial references.

• Street of Madrid: 10 Novels
• Literary maps of Madrid and Tiempo de silencio: A series of maps developed based on a corpus of 20+ novels set in Madrid
• Map of Don Quixote: A map of places mentioned in DQM
• Map of Una mala noche la tiene cualquiera: A map of places mentioned in Anyone Can Have a Bad Night by Eduardo Mendicutti
