A hidden classic of modern European women's literature.The tragic story of a vibrant young woman locked in the narrow peasant society and stark mountain landscapes of Catalonia.
Turn-of-the-Century Barcelona comes to life in this rediscovered classic from one of Catalan's most beloved female authors
Caterina Albert i Paradis (1869-1966) began her career with a scandal. Her dramatic monologue "The Infanticide," delivered by a young woman, won prizes and garnered the attention of the Catalan literary world, but its harsh theme drew outrage when the anonymous author was revealed to be a woman. In the tradition of George Eliot, George Sand, and other controversial women authors, Albert had assumed a man's name, Víctor Catala. She continued to write unflinching narratives, mostly in Catalan, of the people and life around her, producing a body of work still enlisted today to help the Catalan language resist the dominance of Peninsular Spanish. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
