Edicions 1984 reissues this classic by Lev Tolstoy, at a time when it could not be more topical. One of the great classics of Russian literature that delves into the great issues of humanity, as current today as Tolstoy’s Russia. It is a key work, with countless rounded and memorable characters. This is the first translation, by Judit Díaz, made directly from the canonical Russian version. Virginia Woolf said that there was no experience of human existence that did not appear in this work and, perhaps, reading these two very long volumes is a good opportunity to see that neither Russia nor the past are as far away as we think.

Victor Resco de Dios is a professor of forestry engineering at the University of Lleida and has published Ecomitos, with Plataforma Editorial. It analyses the lies about the measures to combat climate change: how can a small percentage of the population pollute so much more than most of the population; are the measures being implemented effective; do they have scientific support or only political support? The fight against climate change is essential, but this book helps us avoid being taken for a ride. The only regret is that despite being a Catalan publisher and a book by a Catalan university professor, there is still no edition in our language.

Maria Barbal, winner of the Premi d’Honor de les Lletres Catalanes and author of the Joaquim Ruyra Prize for “Pedra de tartera”, presents El refugiat. It tells the story of a squirrel who has to leave the forest where he lives because of a fire and ends up in a new place where he has to win over everyone because no one knows him. At a time when war adventurism and rampant xenophobia coexist, Barbal’s proposal is tremendously appropriate to make children understand that nobody leaves home just because they want to.
