«Dissabte a la nit i diumenge al matí» is the novel by Alan Sillitoe published by Edicions 62 in paperback, with 264 pages, in Catalan.
The novel follows Arthur Seaton, a twenty-two-year-old worker in postwar Nottingham, who works piecework in a bicycle factory and lives for the weekend: drinking until he falls, picking fights, and sleeping with married women. His rebellion clashes with a grey, conformist environment, and he discovers that this apparent freedom is a trap.
First instalment of the Seaton series and volume 105 of the MOLU s.XX collection. The original work, from 1958, won the Authors' Club Best First Novel Award.
For readers of British social fiction and stories about the twentieth-century working class.
Alan Sillitoe FRSL was an English writer and one of the so-called "angry young men" of the 1950s. He disliked the label, as did most of the other writers to whom it was applied. He is best known for his debut novel Saturday Night and Sunday Morning and his early short story "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner", both of which were adapted into films.
