Hello. It's unlikely Vallvi will be translated to any language. First of all, it's an old book and I wouldn't feel comfortable if it resurfaced without me having a chance to fix it first, maybe even to rewrite it. Second, I don't think it'd be too interesting for foreign audiences to begin with. The geography, the backstory, and many of the characters belong to Catalonia; to outsiders, the context is not familiar enough. I prefer to leave that book behind in the hazy past and to keep telling myself it was really funny. Thanks for the interest though.
