This collection of essays explores the landscape and character of the Emporda region. Written in the early twentieth century, the text offers a lyrical and descriptive look at the local geography and the people who inhabit it. The vocabulary is rich and evocative, often using specific regional terms related to nature and rural life. While the sentences are generally well structured, the descriptive style and poetic tone provide a moderate challenge for learners looking to expand their literary vocabulary in Catalan.

Questions about this book
What level of Catalan do I need for this book?
The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 50 min at a native pace, spread over 33 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
