«El día de l'ós» is the novel by Joan-Lluís Lluís, published by La Magrana in paperback (112 pages, in Catalan).
Bernadette returns to her village, Prats de Molló, after twenty years of exile and her mother's suicide, perhaps seeking that same ending. Her arrival coincides with the reappearance of a bear; local legend says that when the bear returns, the French will leave, but first it must unite with a virgin woman.
It belongs to the Otros La Magrana collection (no. 172) and won the Crexells Prize 2004.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in Catalan literature and in plots that intertwine legend and historical memory.
Joan-Lluís Lluís is a Catalan writer. His works include five novels and a collection of essays entitled Conversa amb el meu gos sobre França i els francesos. This last work, which Lluís himself describes as a pamphlet, focuses on the precarious linguistic situation of the Catalans under French administration.
