Marty Bosc is a simple, educated, sixty-three-year-old, disenchanted Catalan man. He usually prefers his own company, and likes to live life on a day-to-day basis. However, despite his attempts to simplify his affairs, he becomes the personification of the slightly modified age-old adage, "man proposes and fate disposes".

Offering a panoramic view of the last four decades in Catalonia, the English translation of this free-thinking Catalonian novel-a mixture of adventure and noir-has all the classic ingredients: life, love, death, hate, fear, indifference, corruption, arrogance... all under an ironical, often tender, sometimes sour point of view of the narrator: our dear Marty, or Marti, but certainly not Martiria, the one he was baptised with.

Toni Prunes The Erratic Life of Marty Bosc will take you on a journey from beach town of Platja d'Aro in Costa Brava to the Pyrenees mountains and the Valles Region, the industrial heart of Catalonia, with some elopes to Hamburg, Germany, as well. With adventure, shady deals, old rues, murders, crossroads, you are in for a ride, especially if you're a freethinker!

"I enjoyed it very much. It's quirky, funny and original. Give it a proper chance!" says F.B., one of Prunes' English readers from New Zealand.
