In the eight stories presented in The Song of Youth, Montserrat Roig (Barcelona, 1946-1991) employs languageas a weapon against political and social "dismemory", enabling the stories of those silenced by the brutal Francoregime to come to the fore. Feminist, critical but always lyrical, Roig's writing gives shape and meaning to thehuman experience.
