Puigcerdà

Puigcerdà is the birthplace of Regina Rodríguez Sirvent, a Catalan author who has recently gained significant attention. She is newsworthy due to the success of her first book, 'Les calces al sol' (translated as 'Las bragas al sol'), published in September 2022. The book, which recounts her experiences as an au pair in Atlanta, has sold over 100,000 copies in Catalonia alone and has been translated into six languages. Furthermore, an audiovisual adaptation of the book is currently in development. Recent events include a premiere or launch event, possibly related to the audiovisual adaptation or a new edition of the book, where Rodríguez Sirvent was the central figure. Her work's popularity and the upcoming adaptation highlight Puigcerdà as the origin of a successful and relevant contemporary author.
