«La febre d'or I» is the novel by Narcís Oller i Moragas published by Edicions 62 in 1980, in paperback, with 304 pages and in Catalan.
Considered the author's most ambitious work, this first part portrays nineteenth-century Barcelona and the rise of a bourgeoisie enriched by stock-market speculation in the early 1880s. It is both a social portrait and a document of an era of transformation.
First part of La febre d'or, subtitled «La pujada», in the MOLC collection (Les Millors Obres de la Literatura Catalana).
For readers of classic Catalan fiction and novels portraying nineteenth-century Barcelona society.
Narcís Oller i de Moragas was a Catalan lawyer and novelist who initially wrote in the traditions of literary realism and naturalism, later adapting his style to the Modernisme movement, the Catalan equivalent of Art Nouveau. Despite his stylistic evolution, he is considered one of the leading Catalan authors of the 19th century.
