«Valentina» is the novel by Carles Soldevila, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (144 pages, in Catalan).
A seventeen-year-old girl sees the world of idealizations around her collapse within a bourgeois Barcelona family. With interior monologue, the novel explores Valentina's identity and the hypocrisy of family relationships, unmasking hidden interests with echoes of Hamlet and the Electra theme.
Published in 1933, it won the Premi Joan Crexells for narrative and closes Soldevila's feminine trilogy (Fanny, Eva and Valentina). Edition from Les Millors Obres de la Literatura Catalana.
Suitable for school reading and for those interested in classics of twentieth-century Catalan literature.
Spanish journalist, poet and writer (1892-1967)
