The Gray Notebook
by Josep Pla
Buy on AmazonI recently finished reading "The Gray Notebook," by Josep Pla, translated from the Catalan by Peter Bush. It is a hypnotic record of the author's life in the Catalan provinces and Barcelona in the first half of the 20th century, and I found myself wishing this very long book to go on forever.
