The Last Son's Secret
A huge international bestseller, this heartbreaking tale of a tiny Italian village during two World Wars will stay with you forever. Among the olive groves and vineyards of southern Italy, a boy and a girl are born, moments apart. Far away in the trenches of World War I, their fathers have just died. Now all the men in Vitantonio’s family have been wiped out – all twenty-one. All except him. Growing up together, war seems far away for the two children. But Vitantonio’s mother will do anything to protect her son from the curse of death that seems to hang over the family – and so she tells a lie. It is a lie that will bind Vitantonio and Giovanna, the girl who shares his birthday, together over the years.

Mar d'estiu
Una aproximació sentimental al Mediterrani, als petits plaers de la vida, i una invitació a observar i descobrir les històries dels llocs i de les persones que l'habiten. «De petits ens pensàvem que el mar començava a l'Agulla de Castell i s'acabava a la Cova de cap Gros. No era un tros de mar gaire gran, però a nosaltres ens semblava tot un món: de cada roca en fèiem una illa; de cada platja, un continent; de tota la badia, un univers sencer. Era un paradís i en coneixíem cada pam, cada racó i cada sortint que servís per tirar-se de cap i capbussar-se en uns fons marins que també ens sabíem de memòria.» Rafel Nadal va ser l'autor més venut de Sant Jordi 2019. Una de les plomes més valorades en el panorama literari.
The Splendor and Opulence of the Past
The Splendor and Opulence of the Past traces the career of Jaume Caresmar (1717–1791), a church historian and a key figure of the Catalan Enlightenment who transcribed tens of thousands of parchments to preserve and glorify Catalonia's medieval past in the face of its diminishing autonomy. As Paul Freedman shows, Caresmar's books, essays, and transcriptions—some only recently discovered—provide fresh insights into the Middle Ages as remembered in modern Catalonia and illustrate how a nation's past glories and humiliations can inform contemporary politics and culture. From the ninth to the sixteenth centuries, Catalonia was a thriving, independent set of principalities within what would...
