«Testament a Praga» is the novel by Tomàs and Teresa Pàmies, published by labutxaca in paperback format (224 pages, in Catalan).
Tomàs Pàmies, a retired gardener in Prague, wrote his memoirs and sent them to his daughter Teresa, exiled in Paris. After Tomàs's death, Teresa interweaves her father's text with her own letters and reflections; two generations united by exile and by their love of Prague. The work addresses socialism after the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968.
It won the Premi Josep Pla in 1970 and the Premi Crítica Serra d'Or for prose in 1972. This 2012 edition belongs to the Labutxaca collection.
For readers of contemporary Catalan literature and twentieth-century history, especially those interested in Republican exile and communism.
