Blanca Busquets

Blanca Busquets i Oliu (Barcelona, 1961) is a Catalan writer, scriptwriter and linguist. The written word has marked out her life. At the age of twelve she wrote her first short story, and from that point on, writing became the central axis of her life. She has published several novels: Presó de neu [Snow Prison] (Proa, 2003); with the publishing house Rosa dels vents, El jersei [The Sweater] (2006), Tren a Puigcerdà [Train to Puigcerdà] (2007); and, translated into Spanish (ed. Grijalbo) A saber dónde está el cielo [Who Knows Where Heaven Is] (2009), La nevada del cuco [The Snowfall of the Cuckoo] (2010), La casa del silencio [The House of Silence] (2013) and Palabras a medias [Half-formed Words] (2014). Jardí a l’obaga [Garden in the Shade] (2016), La fugitiva [The Fugitive] (2018), [El crit] The Cry (2019) and Constellations (2022) have once again published by Proa. Her books have been translated into Spanish, Italian, German, Polish, Russian, Norwegian, French and English. She won the 2011 Llibreter prize (awarded by Catalan booksellers) for The Snowfall of the Cuckoo.
