In The Song of Youth, Montserrat Roig boldly presents eight remarkable
stories that use language as a weapon against political and social
"dismemory." Her powerful and striking prose allows the important
stories of those silenced by the brutal Franco regime to, at last, come
to the fore. The Song of Youth is undoubtedly feminist and deeply
critical but, as always, Roig's lyrical writing gives shape, depth, and
significance to the human experience.
