«Misteriosament feliç» is the poetry collection by Joan Margarit, published by Proa in hardcover (104 pages, in Catalan).
The collection uses the tide as an image of death: it enters life like the high tide and, as it recedes, leaves the coast clear. The awareness of finitude changes one's gaze, but pain is not the opposite of happiness. With bare verses, the book seeks to coexist with life and death and maintains that, even so, one can be mysteriously happy.
It belongs to Proa's Òssa Menor collection, number 302. This is the fourth edition; the work was originally published in November 2008.
For readers of contemporary poetry and for those who wish to delve deeper into the work of Joan Margarit.
Joan Margarit i Consarnau was a Catalan poet, architect and professor. Most of his work is written in the Catalan language. He won the 2019 Miguel de Cervantes Prize.
