En la sombra
I Premi Proa de Novel·la, 2019
Nopca, Jordi
In the summer of 2010, Pere, a young man of twenty-five who lives in Barcelona with his parents, is distracted by electronic music, the project of a leisure and cultural website and sexual encounters with Kate, an enigmatic English violinist. But he can't get Laura, his ex-girlfriend, out of his mind. Meanwhile, his older brother, Joan, a voracious primary school reader, leads a secret life that will affect him fully. The lives of the two protagonist brothers run in parallel, sometimes as two rivers, sometimes as two cars in the opposite direction, and they will converge throughout the novel in an unexpected way. An ambitious novel about personal identity today, brilliantly combining drama and irony.
