El silenci dels astronautes (The Silence of the Astronauts), Joanot Martorell Prize 2023, has now reached the bookstores!
The latest novel by Laia Fàbregas tells the story of a girl who decides to isolate herself from the world, of a mother who does not know how to help her and of a child who, from a distant time and space, will be the key to everything. After all, it is the story of a mother and daughter who struggle to adapt to their circles.
Fàbregas elegantly navigates complex, current, human and universal issues, and dresses them with profound narrative simplicity.
The jury described El silenci dels astronautes as "a realistic, contemporary novel, with an intimate and social nature, with great sensitivity and written in an apparently simple style but loaded with significance: the story of two lives imprisoned in invisible prisons."
