There are three novels published between 1920 and 1935 which I have chosen as a token of spanish classical narrative. Their authors judge a fading Mankind on its evilness, reaching different outcomes: in one, the righteous are saved while the sinners are banished to Hell, at so great a speed that they are still alive on arrival; in another, only a handful of the chosen, who get to another planet, survives, and in the last, well, Mankind is extinguished and God creates a new Man and a new Woman in a Paradise where He’s uprooted the tempting Tree of Knowledge.
