Synopsis I, Gaudí
Fact and fiction are intertwined in this novel that imagines Gaud¡'s inner thoughts through the medium of twenty-one letters written while the architect was recovering from a serious illness in his later years. Far from a typical historical novel, I, Gaud¡ is a powerful story about one of the greatest architects of all time, in which the voice of Gaud¡ addresses the reader directly on the subjects of his family, his work, his friends, his feelings, his desires and his disappointments. The truth of Gaud¡'s life is blended with imaginary reconstruction, resulting in a passionate tale that answers many questions about Gaud¡ and his world-renowned architecture. How did his love life impact his work? What was his relationship with the writers and poets of his time? Why was he so distracted the day he was run over by a tram? Who was Gaud¡ really? Few people are equipped to answer these questions better than Xavier Güell, a descendant of Eusebio Güell, the man who financed most of Gaud¡'s projects.
