«Confeti» is Jordi Puntí's novel about musician Xavier Cugat, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (408 pages, in Spanish).
Confeti narrates the life of Xavier Cugat, a musician born in 1900 who devoted his life to fame and happiness through caricatures, orchestras, film, and his marriages. A show-business chronicler is the narrator, and the action runs through the twentieth century between New York, Hollywood, Havana, and Barcelona, on the border between reality and fiction.
Confeti won the 2023 Sant Jordi Novel Prize; the Spanish edition, translated from Catalan by Rita da Costa, belongs to the Narrativas hispánicas collection.
For readers of contemporary fiction and fictionalized biographies of twentieth-century music and entertainment figures.
Jordi Puntí i Garriga is a Catalan language writer, columnist, and translator.
