«Primaveras y otoños» is the novel by Baltasar Porcel, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (244 pages, in Spanish).
In a Mallorcan manor house, the Taltavull family gathers on Christmas Eve. Over the course of the evening, several generations evoke legends, travels, feuds, love affairs and episodes of the civil war. The novel turns that shared memory into a bittersweet portrait of the Mediterranean world, with sensual writing in which sex and death surface.
It was originally published in Catalan as «Les primaveres i les tardors»; it won the Premi Sant Jordi (1986) and the Premi Joan Crexells de narrativa (1987).
Baltasar Porcel i Pujol was a Spanish writer, journalist and literary critic. His enormous legacy credited him as one of the greatest authors in Catalan literature from the 20th century.
