Oriol Puig

Oriol Puig moves between literary chronicle and essay. He is interested in how stories reflect social and emotional changes, and he writes in a simple language that invites readers to discover new titles. He lives in Barcelona and tends to write as if in conversation, with the calm of someone who wants to share a discovery rather than impose a lesson.
