«Paludes» is the novel by André Gide, published by Destino CAT in paperback (151 pages, in Catalan).
The novel centres on a writer who keeps postponing the writing of his own book while moving between gatherings of the Parisian intellectual scene. With irony, Gide portrays those circles and offers a reflection on the weight of literary tradition and the difficulty of creating something new.
Work originally published in 1895. This Catalan edition (Destino CAT, 2003), with a translation by Núria Petit and a foreword by Enric Vila-Matas, belongs to the Biblioteca Pompeu Fabra.
