A muller ía descalza e levaba o camisón manchado de sangue. Tamén as mans, e talvez por iso puido virlle á cabeza o día, había dous anos, no que o congro lle arrincara os dedos. Mais o sangue fluía do peito, dun ombro, a muller tiña todos os dedos nas mans que retorcía ansiosamente.

BOLETÍN GALEGO DE LITERATURA, nº 50 / 1º SEMESTRE (2017): pp. 5-16 / ISSN 0214-9117 ENCONTROS Encontro con Marilar Aleixandre / Olivia Rodríguez González RENDEZVOUS [Recibido, 20 febreiro 2017; aceptado, 19 maio 2017] http://dx.doi.org/10.15304/bgl.50.3950 5 Dna. Marilar Aleixandre, acompañada por membros do plenario da institución, tras o discurso de ingreso como académica de número da Real Academia Galega (RAG)1 1 As fotos que ilustran a conversa proceden do Arquivo da Real Academia Galega. Agradecemos as facilidades dadas para a súa reprodución. Boletín Galego de Literatura, nº 50 / 1º semestre (2017) / ISSN 0214-9117 De Marilar Aleixandre podemos empezar dicindo que se trata dunha das escritoras galegas de máis longa traxectoria. Traduciu libros ao galego e pu- blicou en todos os xéneros, mesmo nos híbridos con música, fotografía ou banda deseñada. Comezou na Literatura Infantil e Xuvenil, onde pronto se consagrou con abondosos lectores, premios de prestixio e frecuentes tradu- cións. Salientan as súas narracións de aventuras con protagonismo feminino, intriga ben dosificada e unha axilidade non doada de conseguir nun campo no que a función didáctica ten que existir pero nunca notarse. Aleixandre sábeo e practícao en contos e novelas, e mesmo en pezas para monicreques. Se tivé- semos que apuntar algún título para ilustrar o dito, elexiriamos A Expedición do Pacífico (1994) ou A banda sen futuro (1999). Na narrativa fantástica, Marilar Aleixandre revélase como importante cul- tivadora dunha liña presente desde vello na narrativa galega. Velaí a novela Tránsito dos gramáticos (1993), que leva os lectores por escenarios de Santiago de Compostela, ou os contos de O coitelo en novembro (2010) que pola vía do fantástico os conducen ao mundo da resistencia antifascista ou das palabras que se erguen como personaxes.
