«Els cucs de seda» is a collection of ten short stories by Joan F. Mira, published by Edicions 3 i 4 in paperback (160 pages, in Catalan).
Ten stories follow an adolescent who, from his innocence, discovers the world around him. The title alludes to metamorphosis: just as the silkworm becomes a butterfly, the young man approaches adult life in these tales set in the postwar period.
The work was first published in 1998 and belongs to the El Grill collection of Edicions 3 i 4.
Recommended for readers of Catalan fiction, particularly those who appreciate coming-of-age stories and portrayals of the postwar era.
