The Queen Mary Catalan Bookclub met earlier this month, on 16 September, to discuss Dead Lands, the disturbing new bestseller by the young writer, Núria Bendicho.

At once an investigation and a social portrait, the book could best be described as a punch slowly delivered to the gut. It's a novel that smells of blood, urine and sex. The author and her translator Maruxa Relaño talked about the book to an enthusiastic online audience. The meeting was hosted by John London, Director of the Centre for Catalan Studies at Queen Mary.
