Barcelona Potholes

Barcelona has the ability to live immersed in a considerable jumble. The Olympic Games, the Forum of Cultures, the squatters, the rising prices, the construction bubble, the people who pass by and the streets, that remain. The city is a hive of passions. Some love it. Others would burn it.
After dazzling the critics with Escafarlata d'Empordà and Alteracions, Adrià Pujol dares now to dissect, with intelligence, perspiration and irony, the city and indirectily the whole country.

Escafarlata/Picadura is a vibrant autobiographical diptych in which the author combines his wild adolescence in the Empordà with his immersion in Olympic Barcelona. With humor, liveliness, and a mosaic of colorful moments, Adrià Pujol creates a magnetic work that compiles and reworks the books published in 2011 and 2014 into a single volume.
