Interview with María Menéndez-Ponte

Abstract

This interview to this teenage literature writer talks about two main topics: literature and adolescences. Her family tells her that she has not got over adolescence, that is why most of her main characters in her novels are teenagers, with their problems and challenges. That comes from her being in touch with youngsters who let her know their concerns and their profiles nowadays. Furthermore, she talks about the importance of schools and teachers in reading encouragement.
