Emma

Rate this book
L'Emma és una dona jove. En no sentir l'amor del seu marit, la vida se li fa insofrible i, després d'abandonar la família per Denís, l'home amb qui viurà una intensa, breu, aventura amorosa, acaba al carrer. Decebuda i desorientada, sense res que l'empenyi a continuar, pensa en el passat i en tot el que l'envolta. Recuperar la seva filla es convertirà en el motiu fonamental, quasi l'únic, que la mou a tornar a la normalitat.

La lluita d'una persona per retornar l'equilibri a la seva vida i per recuperar la filla és la base d'una història que té un impuls narratiu originat en fets reals. Una novel·la sobre la recerca del desig de viure.

About the author

Maria Barbal

47 books31 followers
Maria Barbal is a Catalan writer. Even though she has lived in Barcelona from the 1960s onward, the literary world of her early work as an author concentrates on the Pallars county of her childhood and adolescence, a rural surrounding observed by a critical eye. Her first novel, Pedra de tartera [‘Stone from a boulder’], fully set in that space, was praised by the public and critics alike. Her first novel has been translated into English as Stone in a Landslide
