«Cinco historias del mar» is a collection of stories by Josep Pla, published by Caja de Madrid in paperback (273 pages, in Spanish).
In five stories, Pla sets the action in the Mediterranean and the fishing villages of the Costa Brava. Catalan gastronomy and fishing, the character of the Ampurdan people, and several shipwreck episodes intertwine as a tribute to seafaring life and its people.
The original Catalan «Cinc històries del mar» was published in 1979; the Spanish translation is by Josep Daurella.
Josep Pla i Casadevall was a Spanish journalist and a popular author. As a journalist he worked in France, Italy, Britain, Germany, and the Soviet Union, from where he wrote political and cultural chronicles in Catalan and Spanish.
