«Carta a la reina d'Anglaterra» is the young adult novel by Vicenç Pagès Jordà, published by Estrella Polar in paperback (120 pages, in Catalan).
Joan Ferrer, unjustly sentenced to a disproportionate punishment, writes a letter to the Queen of England to review his existence of nearly a thousand years. From the Middle Ages to the threshold of the third millennium, he has known palaces, scholars and the powerful, and has loved women of many languages and countries; now he sets out the facts of a wandering life without asking for mercy.
Novel winner of the Premi Ciutat d'Olot in 1997, originally published that year. This edition, in the Vostok collection, includes two postscripts by the author.
Recommended for young readers aged 12 and over interested in a historical and literary adventure across the centuries.
