Joan Margarit, que ha complert 80 anys aquest mes de maig, fa unes memòries d’infantesa que tenen una profunditat illuminadora. El poeta no espigola agendes o àlbums familiars, no es deixa amanyagar gaire per la nostàlgia, ni el preocupa gens quedar bé, sinó que es capbussa de ple en els records que li han quedat clavats i tracta d’entendre per què són allà i de quina manera tenen a veure amb la construcció de la seva vida i de la seva poesia.

One of the most beloved novelists of all time, Jane Austen (1775 - 1817) is also one of the most scrutinized. Since the early 20th century, she has been a favorite topic of academic researchers and scholars; at the same time, the popularity of her books has continued to grow. Why are Austen's novels the subject of scholarly tomes and doctoral dissertations, and also the inspiration for a virtual cottage industry of popular adaptations?
