The volume brings together brief urban-set stories, with fast, precise language, irony, and a playful, tender imagination. Pierre Lepape compared the author's stories to small glasses of very strong, very dry alcohol drunk in one gulp on nights of spleen, and Pablo Di Masso highlighted his ability to delve into the urban.
First edition published on 17 June 1986. Part of the Mínima Minor collection, number 21.
Readers of urban short stories and contemporary Catalan literature; also serves as a gateway to Sergi Pàmies's narrative.
