Reviews
A fascinating and varied collection, which captures the diversity and atmosphere of the city. -- Karen Langley, Shiny New BooksOne can always think of some omissions when reading an anthology ... There can be little complaint, though, about these fourteen tales, set in different areas of Barcelona ... They reveal how this industrial port city has been and is a magnet for migrants. They show the class divisions between areas. They trace, too, the development of modern Catalan literature in both Catalan and Spanish. -- Michael Eaude, Catalonia TodayPeter Bush, the translator, does an excellent job translating both from Spanish and Catalan into English. He very well replicates the style and flow of the original author ... Helen Constantine and Peter Bush have produced a quite excellent, if slightly quirky, book. A great read for anyone heading to the Catalan capital. -- TripFiction, A fascinating and varied collection, which captures the diversity and atmosphere of the city. -- Karen Langley, Shiny New Books One can always think of some omissions when reading an anthology ...

Synopsis
Barcelona Tales presents a selection of newly translated short stories by 14 writers, many of them Catalan. The stories open up Barcelona in ironic, tragic, and lyrical ways, inviting readers to explore fictional lives and literary styles that reflect the dynamic, conflict-ridden character and history of this great European city., Barcelona is one of the most visited cities in Europe, a multilingual capital of an autonomous region that longs to be independent of Spain. The city is famous for its painters, modernist architecture, style of football, and its history, but as Peter Bush reveals it has always been a major centre of literary talent and creativity. Barcelona Tales presents a selection of newly translated short stories by 14 writers, many of them Catalan. The stories explore the themes of migration and class conflict in a city renowned in world literature from the day rural innocents Don Quixote and Sancho Panza visited its streets at the beginning of the seventeenth-century, and witnessed the wonders of the printing press and the cruelties of slavery. Together, they open up the city in ironic, tragic, and lyrical ways, inviting readers to explore fictional lives and literary styles that reflect the dynamic, conflict-ridden character and history of this great European city., Barcelona is one of the most ancient cities in Europe and now one of the world's most visited. The city is famous for its painters, spectacular modernist buildings, its style of football, and its history, but, as Peter Bush reveals in Barcelona Tales, the city has also nurtured outstanding literary talent expressed in Catalan or Spanish. Fourteen newly translated stories tell of the city's history, development, and diversity: from the astronished gaze of rural innocents Do Quixote and Sancho Panza visiting the city in the seventeenth century, through the demise of empire and darkness of civil war, to the transformations experienced after the Franco dictatorship and the euphoria of the 1992 Olympic Games. Together, they open up the city in ironic, tragic, and lyrical ways, inviting readers to explore fictional lives and literary styles that reflect the dynamic character and history of this great European city.
