Authors

       Joan Perucho (Barcelona, 1920) studied to become a lawyer in Barcelona. In his beginnings, he published some books of poetry. In 1956, he wrote the novel 'Llibre de cavalleries' (Chivalries book), a history of time paradoxes that convulsed the catalan prose. His likings for the fantastic genre continued in 1960 with 'Les histÔries naturals' (Natural History), a wonderful vampires novel; 'Aparicions i fantasmes' (Ghosts and apparitions) in 1968; 'Monstruari fantÁstic' (Fantastic collection of monsters), in 1976; and 'Les aventures del cavaller Kosmas' (The adventures of the knight Kosmas) in 1981.
