Inventory of Affinities | Edicions del Periscopi, 2023
Reading is, in addition to so many other things, an act of freedom. Ramon Mas’s knowledge and passion make this personal inventory a celebration of reading happiness.
Beyond the traditional canon, the reader constructs his or her own private orders, joining texts of an improbable connection, associating landscapes, gestures and syntax, and making a personal choice, made according to the logic of affinities.
In this spirit, Inventari d’afinitats proposes three drifts through a Catalan tradition that is little known and often out of print, and outlines a reading biography capable of linking Munné-Jordà with Villalonga, Pujulà and Rusiñol; or of discovering the thread that leads from Bertrana to Sindreu, passing through Espriu and continuing through Pujols.
