Escobedo, Joana

Escobedo, Joana
b. 1942, Barcelona
   Writer
   Escobedo belongs to the academic world as author of Catalan language textbooks, and to the cultural world of museums and libraries as curator of special collections at the Biblioteca de Catalunya. As critic, she has authored numerous erudite articles for professional journals. Her wider visibility results from cultivation of imaginative fiction in the feminist vein coinciding with the post-Franco vogue of vernacular writing. Silenci endins (The Silence Around) (1979) explores via interior monologue the female protagonist's memories of rigid, repressive conditioning; Amic, Amat (Friend, Lover) (1980) employs multiple time planes to sketch and dissect problematic relationships.
