| Summary |
"Ànimes atuïdes" by Josep Roig i Raventós is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces Andreu, a laborer grappling with personal and familial struggles, as he navigates the challenges of work, family dynamics, and societal expectations against the backdrop of rural life. The opening of the novel sets a poignant scene in a winter landscape, portraying Andreu returning home after a long day of labor. As he reflects on his emotional turmoil, feelings of joy from a productive day are coupled with profound sadness stemming from conflicts with his mother-in-law and his yearning for better days. This tension is magnified by the presence of his beloved wife, Tecla, and their child. The narrative delves into Andreu's inner struggles, capturing the complex interplay of love, responsibility, and the weight of familial expectations as he faces an uncertain future. This mix of hope and despair creates a rich emotional depth, inviting readers to ponder the human condition amidst the harsh realities of life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
