Raül Garrigasait
Raül Garrigasait (Solsona, 1979) has published 'El gos cosmopolita i dos espècimens més' ('The Cosmpolitan Dog and Two Further Specimens'), an essay that falls somewhere between fiction and philosophical reflection, the novel 'Los extraños' ('Els Estranys', 'The Strangers') which won the Llibreter prize and the Òmnium prize for best Catalan-language book of the year, and 'El fugitiu que no se'n va. Santiago Rusiñol i la modernitat' ('The Fugitive Who Doesn't Leave; Santiago Rusiñol and Modernism'). He has translated works by Plato, Goethe, Papadiamandis, Joseph Roth and Peter Sloterdijk among others. Tense and original, his work focuses on the idols of modernity.
