«Jo pos per testimoni les gavines» is the novel by Carme Riera, published by Laia in 1977 in paperback (90 pages, in Catalan).
The book is presented as a letter sent to Carme Riera by a reader who, after reading one of her stories, feels that his own life coincides with it and decides to tell her his story. This approach turns the work into a literary exercise on the relationship between literature and life, memories and feelings.
The volume belongs to the Les Eines collection, in its Literature/narrative series. The work is part of the author's first narrative stage, along with «Te deix, amor, la mar com a penyora» (1975), with which it shares a poetic vocation and a testimonial will.
For readers interested in contemporary Catalan narrative and in the early work of Carme Riera, one of the most relevant voices in Catalan literature.
Carme Riera Guilera is a novelist and essayist. She has also written short stories, scripts for radio and television and literary criticism. She holds a doctorate in Hispanic Philology and is a professor of Spanish literature at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.
