«El xiulet de l'arquer» is the historical novel by Irene Vallejo, published by Columna CAT in paperback (328 pages, in Catalan).
A novel of adventure, war, exile and love set in the ancient world.

Centuries later, the poet Virgil recreates, at the request of Emperor Augustus, that foundational adventure and the lights and shadows of the Roman Empire, in a play between history and legend that connects with contemporary themes such as power, freedom and destiny.
It belongs to the Clàssica collection of Columna CAT, number 1340. The original Catalan edition was published on January 12, 2022.
