«Te deix, amor, la mar com a penyora» is a collection of short stories by Carme Riera, published by Editorial Laia in paperback (119 pages, in Catalan).
The volume brings together several narratives, among which the one that gives the book its title stands out. In all of them, the sea acts as a force that conditions the lives of the characters and even drives them to madness. It was the work with which Carme Riera made herself known and is considered a classic of contemporary Catalan narrative.
Originally published in 1975. It is part of the Les Eines collection (number 12, narrative series) and opens with a prologue by Guillem Frontera.
