Como sé que sois gente apasionada y soñadora, con sensibilidad tanto por los paisajes llenos de lagos y perfiles afilados de roca como por la biodiversidad de los bosques y los prados, iremos a la frontera entre Aigüestortes y Val d'Aran en la mejor época del año. Anticipando el solsticio encontraremos abetos, hayas y robles con brotes de un verde irreal, orquídeas floreciendo con timidez y marmotas chillonas tomando el sol. 🍀El sábado haremos una flipante ascensión a 6 picos entre 2400 y 2600 m. Una excursión corta pero intensa, variando entre pendientes de hierba y algunos tramos de cresta. Después de la fantástica cena de nuestro refugio iremos a visitar la impresionante cascada de Gerber. 🍀El domingo realizaremos una ascensión al poco conocido y muy espectacular Tuc de Parros (2731 m). Nos sumergiremos en el territorio inhóspito y sublime del Parc de l'Alt Pirineu, con fascinación y con seguridad. Y como siempre, nos ubicaremos en el espacio y aprenderemos la orientación con mapa y brújula. Descubriremos la increíble biodiversidad de este parque natural, territorio del oso pardo, de los ciervos que braman en otoño y de esos bosques donde siempre parece que algo se mueve entre las sombras. 🏰 Nuestro palacio será el refugio de montaña con comida casera de dioses ubicado en el abetal más mágico de toda Europa. **🔗 DETALLES TÉCNICOS** 👣 **DÍA 1 (Sábado) • Barcelona -> Pallars • 6 picos y 2 crestas alpinas** \ \*Ruta circular de 10,5 km \* Desnivel de subida: 900 m \ \*Tiempo estimado con paradas: 6h \* Dificultad: **MEDIA**.

Backstory Talks: Monika Radojevic

Backstory Talks: Monika Radojevic

**[BUY HER BOOKS HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/browse?s=monika+radojevik&post_type=product&dgwt_wcas=1)** Join us for an evening with Monika Radojevic, one of the most exciting voices in contemporary British literature. Born in London to a Brazilian mother and a Montenegrin father, her writing has always been rooted in the questions that come with carrying multiple worlds inside you — identity, belonging, language and love. An inaugural winner of the [#Merky](https://www.backstorybookshop.com/search/posts?query=%23#Merky) Books New Writers' Prize, Stormzy's Penguin Random House imprint dedicated to uplifting underrepresented voices, she has since published three books. Her debut poetry collection *Teeth in the Back of My Neck* (2021) established her as a fierce and urgent voice on womanhood and identity. Her short story collection *A Beautiful Lack of Consequence* (2025), awarded the Cosmopolitan Best Short Story Collection of 2025, weaves the surreal with the everyday across thirty tales about the ways the world bends and breaks women — and what happens when they snap back. Her debut novel *Strangerland* (2025) is her most personal work yet: a fictionalised retelling of how her own parents met, fell in love and built a life as immigrants in 1990s London. It has been listed as one of the must-read books of 2026 by Service 95, Dua Lipa's book club. At this Backstory Talk, Monika will share the story behind her writing life, introduce her work and open the floor to your questions. Join us! *If this has sparked something in you, Monika will also be running a [writing workshop the following day, 10th June](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/entradas-creative-writing-masterclass-from-idea-to-story-1988937671115?aff=oddtdtcreator).* **More about the author** Monika Radojevic is a London-born Brazilian-Montenegrin poet, writing mentor and author, and the youngest-ever winner of the Merky Books New Writers' Prize. She spent years working in feminist politics before moving to Berlin in August 2025 to write full time. Her writing is a continuous exploration of the messiness of power dynamics. Her book, A Beautiful Lack of Consequence, was awarded the Cosmopolitan Best Short Story collection of 2025. Her debut novel, Strangerland captures the incredible true love story of two immigrants in London in the 90s and was listed as one of the must-read books for 2026 by Service 95, Dua Lipa's book club.

**[BUY THE BOOK HERE!](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/8-lives-of-a-century-old-trickster/)** We're thrilled to welcome Seth Insua to Backstory for an evening dedicated to his debut novel *Human, Animal*. This is a rare chance to hear Seth speak about the book, the writing process, and the stories behind it — followed by an open Q&A where the audience leads the conversation. Come with your questions, your thoughts, and your copy to get signed! ### **About the Author** Seth Insua is an Anglo-Spanish writer and artist, born in Kent in 1989. He graduated from the University of Oxford with a First in English Language and Literature. His debut novel *Human, Animal* was published by VERVE Books in 2025 and by Letras de Plata in Spanish the following year. He lives between Newcastle upon Tyne and Madrid. ### **About the Book** Dairy farmer George Calvert is fighting to keep the family business afloat. Resistant to change, he refuses to face the reality of his failing farm, his elderly mother's declining health, and his troubled relationship with his youngest son Tom. Newly returned from university, Tom is quietly guarding the truth of his gender identity. When animal rights activists break into the cowshed and Tom appears to side with the protesters, father and son lock horns — and a decades-old secret begins to surface. *Human, Animal* is a deeply moving story about a family struggling to find connection in a changing world. A BBC Radio 2 Book Club pick with Sara Cox, shortlisted for the inaugural New Adult Book Prize and for Book of the Year at the British Book Awards, it has been praised by Russell T Davies as "beautifully, skilfully told — remarkable, inspirational writing."
