«El planeta dels simis» is the science fiction novel by Pierre Boulle, published by La Magrana in paperback (200 pages, in Catalan).
A crewed mission lands on a world that looks like Earth, with jungles, a temperate climate and breathable air, and discovers a civilisation ruled by apes that subjugates humans. The protagonist tries to uncover the secret of that inverted order, in a narrative combining action, suspense and satire on the human condition and progress.
First instalment of the Planet of the Apes series. Catalan edition translated by Anna Casassas; number 111 of the Otros La Magrana collection.
For readers of classic science fiction and social satire looking for a Catalan edition.
