Ariel and the Bodies

When asked if he is a man or a woman, Ariel doesn’t know what to answer. He has been told that he has a body and that this body could fall in love with other bodies, but Ariel's experience is always different. Ariel and the Bodies is the story of a character who exists and loves in a different, elusive, always provisional and disconcerting way. With echoes of Orlando, Virginia Woolf’s famous treatise on gender, this novel is a tribute to unborn loves and to loves that, once born, live touched to death forever.

The confirmation of Sebastià Portell's talent, with a novel about a character who is a man and a woman.
