Camí de sirga is Jesús Moncada's masterpiece, a novel that reminds us that all worlds, big or small, have their end. The story begins with the demolition of house number 20 on the Ferradura descent, an event that triggers the end of the old town of Mequinensa. Through a community of three thousand souls, Moncada shows us the great changes of civilization, the wars and love, envy and friendship. Mequinensa does not have a single story, but many, and Moncada creates a complex and fascinating structure to recreate the fabric of a human community.
Jesús Moncada i Estruga was a narrator and translator. His work is a re-creation, somewhere between realism and fantasy, of the mythical past of the old town of Mequinenza -now submerged beneath the waters of the river Ebro-.
