Els murs invisibles

Invisible Wall | L'Altra Editorial, 2024


«I can’t respond. I notice somebody’s got their arms around me, and unceremoniously I shake them off. Suddenly, all these people who five minutes ago I considered my friends seem like strangers. They don’t know where I come from or the world I belong to.»

On the night of March 12th, 2004, sitting in a bar in Vallcarca with his friends from the Philosophy department, Ramon receives a message that nobody would wish to receive. With it begins a race against the inevitable.

With its autobiographical edge, this book is simultaneously the chronicle of a death foretold, a story about entering adulthood and a hymn to friendship. It is also a homage to a world that springs up on the margins and to relationships forged outside the prevailing conventions in a city as conservative as Vic. Precise and delicate, movingly full of held-back emotion, Els murs invisibles, in short, recounts an episode that will leave an indelible mark on its protagonist’s life.
