Considered the first modernist novel in Catalan literature, 'Els sots feréstecs' (1901) is a landmark work of the early 20th century. The story follows Father Llàtzer, a priest exiled to a remote mountainous region where the wild nature merges with the lives of its inhabitants. Through this conflict between the individual and society, and between tradition and progress, Raimon Casellas explores universal themes such as the acquisition of human consciousness and will against atavistic ties. This critical edition, prepared by Jordi Castellanos, includes a historical prologue and an introduction by Professor Maria Campillo, making it an essential read for understanding a pinnacle of Catalan literature.
