Quim Monzó

Ara matéix hauria d'estar ruminat en com fer l'entrada de Moscow, i deixar de tallar el viatge a Rússia, però precíssament perquè avui m'he trobat la Jill que venia amb nosaltres al viatge i és de Canadà a la biblioteca, i m'ha comentat que venia buscant llibres nous he pensat en "el perquè de tot plegat" que m'ha acompanyat aquí de'n Quim Monzó, i que encara no he tornat a obrir. Em va agradar i descobrir un nou escriptor a l'escola farà més de 10 anys potser; (de fet ara veig que va ser comprat el 16 de Novembre de 1995 així que en farà 14 aquest any), i cada vegada veig més clar que aquest home és un geni, no tant sols per com escriu ni pel que escriu, per la sàtira i l'humor que utilitza sinó per les entrevistes que concedéix, perquè tot el que pensa ho diu però d'una manera que ha estat pensat prèviament però sembla natural.

Per això, un petit resum sobre Quim Monzó i alguna web d'interés:

Biografía [editar]

Empezó a publicar reportajes a principios de los años 70. Su primera novela apareció en 1976. Pasó el año 1982 becado en Nueva York. Ha publicado un buen número de novelas, cuentos y recopilaciones de artículos, ha sido traducido a más de veinte idiomas y ha ganado diversos premios literarios. Sus colaboraciones en Catalunya Ràdio y TV3 desde los años 80 han contribuido a hacerlo uno de los autores catalanes más populares. A principios de los años 70 escribió reportajes sobre Vietnam, Camboya, Irlanda del Norte y el África del Índico en Tele/eXprés. Ha colaborado en diversos diarios, y actualmente publica cada día una columna en el diario La Vanguardia

Monzó es un escritor que mezcla dos registros: uno que podríamos denominar realista y lírico; otro, fantástico y grotesco. Cómo Nabokov, Monzó tiene un virtuosismo que le permite jugar desesperadamente con las palabras, y una dolorosa lanza de acero que perfora la máscara de sus brillantes bromas.

Quim Monzó

Quim Monzó (born March 24, 1952 in Barcelona, Spain), is a contemporary Catalan writer of novels, short stories and discursive prose, mostly in the Catalan language. In the early 1970s, Monzó reported from Vietnam, Cambodia, Northern Ireland and East Africa for the Barcelonian newspaper Tele/eXprés. He lives in Barcelona and publishes regularly in La Vanguardia. His fiction is characterized by an awareness of pop culture and irony. His other prose maintains this humor. One collection of his essays, Catorze ciutats comptant-hi Brooklyn, is notable for its account of New York in the days immediately following September 11.

In collaboration with Cuca Canals, he wrote the dialogue for Bigas Luna's Jamón, jamón. He has also written El tango de Don Joan, with Jérôme Savary.
