Auszug: Jesús Moncada i Estruga (Mequinenza (Aragón, Spain), 1941 - Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain), June 13, 2005) was an Aragonese writer in Catalan. Considered one of the most important Catalan authors of his time, he received various prizes for his work, among them the Premio Ciutat de Barcelona and the Premio Nacional de la Crítica in 1989 for Camí de sirga (The Towpath) and the Creu de Sant Jordi, awarded by the Generalitat de Catalunya in 2001. In 2004-a few months before his death-he received the Premio de las Letras Aragonesas. Moncada is one of the most translated authors of Catalan literature. Camí de sirga has been translated into fifteen languages, among them Japanese and Vietnamese. He also translated into Catalan many Spanish, French, and English works of authors such as Guillaume Apollinaire, Alexandre Dumas, père, Jules Verne, and Boris Vian.

The novel tells the story of a town situated at the confluence of two great rivers, the Ebro and the Segre, through the memories of its inhabitants.

The book also contains some reflections about history, memory, fiction and about the lies they all involve. The general tone is nostalgic, without being bitter, but some of the personalities and situations are also comic. It evokes:- the hypocrisy and cruelty of human relations in a town in which everyone knows everybody- the influence of history -the First World War in Europe and the Span
