Summary "Paulina Buxareu" by Josep Maria de Sagarra is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a picturesque mountain village near Barcelona, focusing on the Buxareu family, particularly Paulina, whose life intertwines with themes of love, social expectations, and personal aspirations. It portrays rich character dynamics, describing the interactions within this family and the societal circles around them. The opening of the novel introduces the narrator's connection with the Buxareu family, specifically Víctor Buxareu, his wife Maria de la Mercè, and their four children. Initially, the narrator reflects on the tranquil charm of the mountain village and his first encounters with the family as they settle in for the summer. Víctor is characterized as an amiable and engaging figure who quickly becomes a center of attention, while Maria’s beauty and maternal warmth are also noted. As the narrator builds relationships with the family, he observes the dynamics between Víctor, his wife, and his sister Lluïseta, hinting at deeper complexities that will unfold in their lives. This portion sets the stage for exploring romantic entanglements, societal pressure, and youthful ambitions in the coming chapters. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
