«Un viaje frustrado» is the story by Josep Pla, published by Salvat in paperback (177 pages, in Spanish).
Josep Pla recalls a youthful episode: he accompanies his friend Baldini from Cadaqués to the Salses lagoon to try to load contraband onto the boat. The crossing, which comes to no good end, serves him to portray the landscape, people and customs of the Empordà with his observant, simple and direct prose.
Volume 11 of the Biblioteca Básica Salvat collection. The cover also reads 'Contrabando'. Includes prologue, translation and notes by Josep M. Espinas.
For readers interested in the short fiction of Josep Pla and in the Biblioteca Básica Salvat editions.
