Confessions by Jaume Cabré
La confessió d'un home que sap que morirà aviat
A sweeping, multi‑generational novel that interweaves the lives of an extended cast to explore how secrets, betrayals and small cruelties accumulate into great harm; through a narrative threaded with music, books and detective-like inquiry, personal confessions and historical violence are slowly uncovered, forcing characters to confront guilt, responsibility and the lingering effects of twentieth‑century atrocities on private life and conscience.
