«Si una nit d'hivern un viatger» is Italo Calvino's metafictional novel, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (224 pages, in Catalan).
The novel tells the story of a reader and a female reader whose attempts at reading are interrupted again and again. A translator named Ermes Marana aims to destroy the fascination of fiction. Calvino turns that frustration into a playful reflection on the act of reading and the boundaries between reality and fiction.
The work, originally published in 1979 as «Se una notte d'inverno un viaggiatore», is translated into Catalan by Montserrat Puig. Collection Les millors obres de la literatura universal, segle XX.
For readers who want to read Calvino in Catalan and appreciate narrative experimentation.
