LAlex Osca arriba a ledat atrotinada de quaranta anys reclos en una casa de Malanyeu (Alt Bergueda). El precedeixen moltes batalles que no shan explicat mai des don hauria tocat explicar-les, i entoma el repte. Trenant i reformulant histories viscudes per ell i la seva tropa de "pringats" mes o menys estimats, anira emergint davant nostre la realitat dels anys vermells de la droga viscuts a la Catalunya sense focus.

"Je m'appelle Renée, j'ai cinquante-quatre ans et je suis la concierge du 7 rue de Grenelle, un immeuble bourgeois. Je suis veuve, petite, laide, grassouillette, j'ai des oignons aux pieds et, à en croire certains matins auto-incommodants, une haleine de mammouth. Mais surtout, je suis si conforme à l'image que l'on se fait des concierges qu'il ne viendrait à l'idée de personne que je suis plus lettrée que tous ces riches suffisants. Je m'appelle Paloma, j'ai douze ans, j'habite au 7 rue de Grenelle dans un appartement de riches. Mais depuis très longtemps, je sais que la destination finale, c'est le bocal à poissons, la vacuité et l'ineptie de l'existence adulte. Comment est-ce que je le sais? Il se trouve que je suis très intelligente. Exceptionnellement intelligente, même. C'est pour ça que j'ai pris ma décision : à la fin de cette année scolaire, le jour de mes treize ans, je me suiciderai. "

Vent de grop no és una novel·la rosa d?Aurora Bertrana. L?amor entre un pescador de la Cala i una turista anglesa no és l?espina dorsal del text, sinó que és el pretext a partir del qual l?escriptora gironina descriu l?eclosio del turisme a la Costa Brava durant els anys seixanta. Bertrana parteix del xoc entre cultures, generacions i maneres de viure i veure el mon. Es fa resso d?uns temps que estan canviant. El catala empordanes, al costat dels castella defectuos de les turistes, aixi com l?angles i alguna nota de frances basteixen una obra rica amb dialegs agils i directes que fan avançar l?accio de la Costa Brava a Londres. Vent de grop va ser un exit de vendes. Aixi mateix, es va adaptar al cinema amb el titol La larga agonia de los peces fuera del agua (1970) protagonitzada per Joan Manuel Serrat.

«Nella guerra tra Austria e Turchia del 1716, il visconte Medardo di Terralba viene colpito da una cannonata turca in pieno petto e torna a casa dimezzato. Questo truculento inizio da l'avvio a una fiaba cadenzata come un balletto, nella quale attorno al mezzo-visconte si muovono e s'affannano sudditi più dimezzati di lui: il dottor Trelawney la cui scienza trascura gli esseri umani, il carpentiere Pietrocchiodo che costruisce mirabili ordigni cercando di non pensare che sono forche, l'astratto moralismo dei profughi ugonotti, il decadente edonismo del lazzaretto dei lebbrosi. E una fantasia paga del fuoco di fila delle sue trovate, questa di Calvino, o una pensosa allegoria della condizione dell'uomo contemporaneo sempre "alienato", mutilato, impossibilitato a raggiungere l'integrita, la completezza?»

In ten dazzling stories, Saba Sams dives into the world of girlhood and immerses us in its contradictions and complexities: growing up too quickly, yet not quickly enough; taking possession of what one can, while being taken possession of; succumbing to societal pressure but also orchestrating that pressure. These young women are feral yet attentive, fierce yet vulnerable, exploited yet exploitative.Threading between clubs at closing time, pub toilets, drenched music festivals and beach holidays, these unforgettable short stories deftly chart the treacherous terrain of growing up - of intense friendships, of ambivalent mothers, of uneasily blended families, and of learning to truly live in your own body.With striking wit, originality and tenderness, Send Nudes celebrates the small victories in a world that tries to claim each young woman as its own.
