«L'auca del senyor Esteve» is the modernist novel by Santiago Rusiñol, published by Barcanova in paperback (160 pages, in Catalan).
Mr Esteve runs the haberdashery La Puntual in the Barcelona district of La Ribera, in a city that is changing and struggling to adapt. The fraught relationship with his family, especially with Ramonet, who wants to become a sculptor and turn away from the commercial tradition, allows Rusiñol to satirise the values of the Catalan bourgeoisie at the beginning of the 20th century.
Part of the Barcanova collection Clàssics a mida. Adaptation for young readers, with illustrations by Miquel Pujado. Published on 26 March 2015.
Recommended for young readers aged 12 and over and for anyone wanting to discover a classic of Catalan modernism in an adapted edition.
