Joan Mayans Planells va néixer a Eivissa l’any 1974, entre hippies, pagesos i blocs de formigó.

Format en antropologia social i en història contemporània, ha perdut mitja vida dedicant-se al màrqueting, la consultoria i la comunicació digital.

Eric Dregni: In Cod We Trust (viatjar a Noruega literàriament)

La novel·la “In cod we trust”, d’Eric Dregni, no la tenia a cap llista de to-read. Però tenia un viatge a Oslo en cartera i pocs dies abans d’agafar l’avió vaig buscar alguna lectura amena que m’ajudés a conèixer una mica el país sense haver de confiar-ho tot al que la viquipèdia digués de Noruega […]
