Summary/Abstract: Starting from the epistemological framework of literary cartography, throughout this article we will dwell on the concept of map as a literary spatial structure. First, we will outline the panorama in which the map has become a recurrent tool in cultural industries, as is observed not only at an editorial level, but also in the development of literary tourism. In parallel, within the contemporary novel, the map is also present as a spatial tissue underlying the novelistic structure. This will be our main object of study. In this regard, we will discern the characteristics of this spatial narrative design and its hermeneutical implications, and then develop this cartographic perspective in two novels by the Spanish writer Antonio Muñoz Molina: The Mysteries of Madrid and The Night of Time.
