Abstract
This piece of work analyses the process of memory construction in the work of Jorge Semprún, focusing in his novel Literature or Life. In this article, we explore the connection between the building of a collective identity that could be used as the basis of an Europeanspirituality represented in the political project of the European Union. Our article tries to disclose the literary strategies that Semprún uses to establish this identification while proposes a criticalanalysis of its political implications.
