Estudio de noche
Estudio de noche pone en tela de juicio el acto creativo y la complejidad de su representación. El sentido del humor y la ironía se convierten en instrumentos imprescindibles para el desarrollo de las obras, que a veces, se inclinan hacia un tipo de lenguaje artístico marginal, parodiando temas que antes podían verse como intranscendentes.

Jews and Muslims in Contemporary Spain
The book analyzes the place of religious difference in late modernity through a study of the role played by Jews and Muslims in the construction of contemporary Spanish national identity. The focus is on the transition from an exclusive, homogeneous sense of collective Self toward a more pluralistic, open and tolerant one in an European context. This process is approached from different dimensions. At the national level, it follows the changes in nationalist historiography, the education system and the public debates on national identity. At the international level, it tackles the problem from the perspective of Spanish foreign policy towards Israel and the Arab-Muslim states in a changing global context. From the social-communicational point of view, the emphasis is on the construction of the Self–Other dichotomy (with Jewish and Muslim others) as reflected in the three leading Spanish newspapers.
El carrer dels senyors
No és una novel·la, tampoc un relat històric perfectament trenat. Són alguns instants, escenes i retrats que m'ajuden a explicar la confluència en un carrer de Sarrià, a Barcelona, dels camins i anhels d'una característica família de la burgesia catalana, des de mitjan segle dinou a la postguerra. El món dels fabricants i les relacions socials endogàmiques, l'oci a les estacions balneàries i els atemptats anarquistes, les vetllades al Liceu i les representacions teatrals amateurs. La llei de les tres generacions exemplificada mitjançant la recuperació i interpretació de cartes i testaments, plaques fotogràfiques, llibretes de dibuix i aquarel·les, a més de la recerca en institucions i biblioteques.
