Molt orgullós d'haver contribuït poc o molt, amb la meva obsessió per Gibaltar.cat, al reconeixement públic i constant de la contribució menorquina (i del català) a la cultura pròpia de #Gibraltar

Very interesting to hear Gibraltarian literature was discussed in Nov at the 2nd Congreso Internacional: Exploraciones en las frontera at @univcadiz, where Professor Vélez Núñez delivered a talk entitled 'La verja. Representaciones de la frontera en la literatura gibraltareña.'

Out next month: the latest Patuka Press edition.
This time, contributors look at the Upper Town. Tradition, decay, nostalgia, ghosts and grandparents!

"For the very first time in academic history, Gibraltarians are being offered a platform to speak about their own language, giving them a chance to tell us about their relationship to Llanito, Spanish and English in their own words."

I was recently interviewed by @JanHeller14 for the prestigious Czech literary magazine TVAR. The current edition also features writing by @HumbertHernand7 and @GGDurante, as well as a review of a @PatukaGroup publication. I've just received a copy and it looks great!

I was asked some time ago to make a passage from my novel MARLBORO MAN 'sound more llanito' for the Llanito Past, Present & Future Exhibition recently held in Gib. Below you can see the original passage - together with 3 rewrites, each with more Llanito content than the previous:
