Nosaltres, els valencians is an ambitious work by Joan Fuster, full of social and political implications, which express his personal ideology and that of the sectors in which he has influenced. It was awarded the eighth Lletra d'Or and its citizen projection was enormous: one can speak of a País Valencià before and after Nosaltres, els valencians. Over time, the work has not lost its relevance and continues to be an essential and still controversial book. And, as always, it is served by the pleasant and incisive prose of the extraordinary writer that was Joan Fuster.
Joan Fuster i Ortells was an influential Catalan writer. He is considered a major writer in the Valencian language, and his work contributed to reinvigorate left-wing, pro-Catalan nationalism in Valencia during the Spanish transition to democracy. In his influential political essay Nosaltres, els valencians (1962) he coined the term Països Catalans to refer to the Catalan-speaking territories.
