«El cuaderno gris» is Josep Pla's diary, published by Austral in paperback (816 pages, in Spanish).
A diary begun in 1918 and revised by Josep Pla in his maturity: it mixes literary criticism, political commentary, aphorisms and portraits of figures from Noucentista and avant-garde Barcelona. It is also a chronicle of the city's intellectual life in the early decades of the 20th century and of the writer's own formation.
Work translated from Catalan into Spanish by Dionisio Ridruejo and Gloria de Ros. Belongs to Austral's Contemporánea collection.
Recommended for readers interested in Catalan literature, diaries and the cultural chronicle of the first third of the 20th century.
