Synopsis "La Vacant Imprevista (Empuries Narrativa) (in Catalan)"

Quan Barry Fairbrother mor inesperadament amb poc més de quaranta anys, tot el poble de Pagford queda tocat. Pagford és un poblet típicament anglès, amb una plaça bonica i una església, però el que s'amaga rere una aparença tranquil·la és en realitat una guerra oberta entre els veïns: els rics s'enfronten amb els pobres, el

s adolescents amb els pares, les dones amb els marits i els professors amb els alumnes

Joanne Rowling (Yate, 1965), known worldwide as J.K. Rowling, is a British writer and screenwriter who has left a deep mark on contemporary literature thanks to the creation of the Harry Potter saga. Her work not only revolutionized children's and young adult literature, but also became a global cultural phenomenon. Before achieving success, Rowling studied Philology and worked in various jobs, including Amnesty International. It was during a train journey when the idea of Harry Potter emerged, which, after overcoming personal difficulties such as the loss of her mother and raising her daughter alone, managed to publish in 1997 after several editorial rejections. The Harry Potter saga, with more than 600 million copies sold and translated into multiple languages, is her most influential work. She also writes crime novels under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith, showing her versatility as an author.

In 2020, J.K. Rowling returned to writing for children with the fairy tale The Ickabog, which she first published for free online during the lockdown; later she donated all the book's royalties to help the most vulnerable groups affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. J.K. Rowling confesses she always wanted to be a writer. She lives in Scotland with her family.
