En són protagonistes uns quants nois de vint anys que viuen en un sanatori per a tuberculosos, devorats interiorment per una mort segura i un desig de viure imperiós. N’escriu Agustí Villaronga, que va adaptar-la al cinema l’any 2000: «El mar d’en Blai es sòrdid i lluminós, bell, inquietant, poètic i ple d’amor per als seus personatges. La mort i la religió li donen forma. no reviews | add a review

A moving contribution to the tradition of the metaphysical novel as exemplified by Dostoyevsky and Bernanos, and likewise a worthy counterpart to the vibrant and polyphonic work of fellow Iberians Camilo Jos? Cela and Juan Goytisolo, "The Sea" is a cornerstone of postwar Catalan literature. Set in a tubercular sanatorium in Mallorca after the Spanish Civil War, it tells the story of three children sharing a gruesome secret who are brought together again by chance and illness -- two patients and one nurse. A love triangle, a story of retribution, and an exploration of evil, "The Sea" is "a profound and radical descent into the depths of the human soul."
