El Cor de Sitges...
"El Cor de Sitges was originally written in English and translated into Catalan by the local singer Ram贸n Mirabet. It tells the history of Sitges spanning over 50,000 years, beginning with the recent discovery of a pre-Neolithic settlement beneath Palau Maricel.
The story continues through the Roman era, the Caliphate Muslim period, the Civil War, the voyage of the Indianos to the Caribbean, and the arrival of Santiago Rossinyol, and culminates with the town鈥檚 first Gay Pride event in 2011. El Cor de Sitges serves as an unmissable historical record for Sitges and, indeed, for the history of humanity. This story is intended to introduce the origins of Sitges to young readers, and it is dedicated to all Sitgetans, newcomers, and tourists from around the world.
To ensure a wide international audience can enjoy it, the book has been published in a bilingual edition. The project was born from the collaboration of three local artists, all from Sitges鈥攁 writer, a cartoonist, and a singer. They aim to celebrate the special place that Sitges holds in their hearts and in the hearts of many others, while also sharing the magic of the town with a broader audience, particularly children and young people.
The illustrations are partially coloured so that readers can complete them and let their imaginations run free." We are very excited to have the opportunity to publish this book - we need people to pre-order it in order to make this happen!
