Departing from the premise that Gald os's close engagement with space and place deserves to be at the forefront of scholarly attention, this article provides an in-depth study of their significance in Torquemada en la hoguera. It begins by analysing the relationship between the novel's locations and the real world, demonstrating that the author codes the city of Madrid to express social concerns and promote reader engagement. It then proceeds to examine the public and private spheres, before highlighting the "place of the imagination" in the novel. It reveals that, as in Gald os's press articles, reality is used as a springboard in Torquemada en la hoguera and, drawing upon recent theories, it posits that places serve as a framework for engaging readers with contemporary concerns and as an imaginative springboard for Gald os. They trigger what is effectively a "thinking space" for the author and it is through unravelling their significance that we can fully appreciate Gald os's psychological sensitivity, the novel's modernity, its symbolic value, and imaginative depth. The article concludes by proposing that Gald os's works deserve to be reexamined as "Novels of the Geographical Imagination" and urges readers to revisit the significance of space and place therein.
