dc.description	This article discusses the literary similarities between Doris Lessing's Love, Again (1995) and Rosa Montero's La carne (2016), emphasising the parallels between these writers’ interest in women’s ageing experiences and the role that the main characters in both of these novels play in the contemporary cultural scene. Of particular interest for this analysis is the experience of these two female authors, whose novels were written in historical periods that are marked by major social and economic upheavals, between the 1990s and the first two decades of the twenty-first century. I suggest that their respective productions problematise the notions of affectivity and intimacy and, notably, showcase the contributions made by women, as creative agents of social and cultural change, in the understanding of the process of ageing in contemporary Europe.	ca-ES
dc.description	This article discusses the literary approaches used by Doris Lessing in Love, Again (1995), and Rosa Montero in her novel La Carne (2016), emphasising the parallels between these writers' interest in women’s ageing experiences and the role that both of these novels’ main characters play in the contemporary cultural scene. Of particular interest in this article is the experience of these female authors who write these novels between the 1990s and the two first decades of the 21st century, historical periods which were marked by major social and economic upheaval, I suggest that their respective productions problematise the notions of memory, affectivity and intimacy, and notably showcase the contributions made by women in the process of ageing as creative agents of social and cultural changes in contemporary Europe.	en-US
dc.description	Este artículo estudia las similitudes literarias entre las novelas Love, Again de Doris Lessing (1995) y La carne (2016) de Rosa Montero, destacando el interés paralelo de las dos escritoras en las experiencias de envejecimiento de las mujeres, junto con el papel de sus protagonistas en la escena cultural contemporánea. Interesa de manera especial conocer la experiencia de estas novelistas, cuyos textos se han producido en períodos históricos convulsos desde el punto de vista social y económico, en concreto entre los años noventa del siglo XX y las dos primeras décadas del XXI. Sugiero que las producciones de ambas autoras problematizan nociones sobre la afectividad y la intimidad, y destaco las aportaciones de las mujeres, como agentes creadoras de cambios sociales y culturales, respecto a los procesos de envejecimiento en el contexto europeo contemporáneo.	es-ES
