This volume brings together three novels by the author Sergi Pàmies: La primera pedra (1990), L’instint (1992) and Sentimental (1995). The three novels have in common that they were written on a typewriter in an era without mobile phones or the internet, in addition to being the result of the furor of a writer on the verge of fullness. The novels explore the conditions and consequences of supplication, of electrical and vital darkness and of maturity, passing the baton naturally, like well-matched sisters, unique and at the same time endowed with the same lucid and tender gaze, capable of making an apparently simple story the starting point for a brilliant and distinctive story by the author.
