Pages: 199
Format: 12 x 18 cm


A View of the Ter offers an innovative, dramatic and stimulating approach to two of the greatest, contemporary Catalan poets: Jacint Verdaguer and Miquel Martí i Pol, the authors of, respectively, L’Atlŕntida and La Fŕbrica who were born in the neighbouring towns of Folgueroles and Roda de Ter. Taking the form of a guided tour, we discover the written spaces within sight of the river Ter between the Osona plain and the Guilleries mountains, the agricultural and industrial worlds, the romanticism of the 19th century and the realism of the 20th. In A View of the Ter, these two poets, so close and yet so far from each other, are, through their texts and their landscapes, their existential standpoints and their, equally close and distant, antagonistic and harmonious literary styles, placed within a daring dialogue.

This literary tour offers a different reading experience: placing the reader at the centre of a thrilling crossfire between two ways of writing/reading written spaces of great beauty.
