In 'El mal de Montano', Enrique Vila-Matas introduces us to Rosario Girondo, a character consumed by literature, affected by the peculiar 'mal de Montano'. In his attempt to find a cure, Girondo embarks on a mental odyssey that leads him to travel through cities such as Nantes, Lisbon, and Prague, among others. Through an intimate diary, the protagonist constructs a map of Montano, a region where the enemies of literature proliferate, waging a constant battle against the realism that threatens his imagination. This novel, considered one of Vila-Matas's fundamental works, is a reflection on the illness of literature and a source of inspiration for the defense of art.
Enrique Vila-Matas is a Spanish writer.
