What we define as our modern edition began in Galicia on November 1924, precisely.
Leandro Carré Alvarellos and Ánxel Casal Gosenxe founded on Rúa Real in A Coruña, the Lar publishing house, the seed of Editorial Nós, which a few years later would make history on Rúa do Vilar in Santiago de Compostela.
A century ago, then, an unprecedented cultural project was born. The first volume of this new adventure was entitled “A miña muller,” a novel by Wenceslao Fernández Flórez. It would be followed by a total of 40 works in three years.
We are talking about the first modern publishing project in Galicia because until then there had not been a plan for Galician book publishings like the one launched by Carré and Casal in 1924. They really created a publishing house with a business vocation, not a mere cultural or literary action. Herein lies the big step.
