«Les closes» is the novel by Maria Àngels Anglada Abadal, published by Destino CAT in hardcover (176 pages, in Catalan).
Set in the Ampurdán plain, the novel portrays rural life in the 19th century through the story of the great-grandmother of the author's husband. Through letters, press clippings and various narrative voices, it reconstructs a past marked by the Carlist wars, the arrival of phylloxera and the murder of Tomàs Moragues.
Winner of the Premi Josep Pla in 1978, the work was originally published that year; the present Catalan edition is from 2008.
A read for those who enjoy 19th-century rural portraits and Catalan-language narrative.
