«La dona veloç» is a contemporary novel by Imma Monsó, published by Labutxaca in paperback (384 pages, in Catalan).
The protagonist, Nes, is a forty-eight-year-old psychiatrist who feels time at an abnormally accelerated pace. Daughter of a provincial surgeon, she grew up in a family divided between the Fast and the Slow. The novel reflects on the tyranny of immediacy and the difficulty of separating what is important from what is urgent.
The novel won the Premi de les Lletres Catalanes Ramon Llull (2012) and the Premi El Setè Cel de Salt (2013).
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in stories about the pressure of time and modern life.
