Also see . . . Jaume Fuster i Guillemó (Wikipedia, in Catalan). "Jaume Fuster i Guillemó (Barcelona, November 17, 1945 - L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, January 31, 1998) was a writer, essayist and Catalan translator. Linked to cultural activism, he was one of the founders and president of the Association of Writers in the Catalan Language. Writer of the so-called Seventy Generation, a member of the group Ofèlia Dracs, author of numerous police and dark works, stands as a bridge between Manuel de Pedrolo's novel and that of younger generations. He is, therefore,one who makes possible the continuity of the genre." (Submitted on October 5, 2019.)
