The novel Passeig de Gràcia, by Roger Bastida, has become one of the major publishing successes of the season and ranked as the third best‑selling work of fiction in Catalan during the Sant Jordi book fair, according to data from the Guild of Booksellers.
Winner of the fourth edition of the Santa Eulàlia Prize for the Barcelona Novel, awarded by Comanegra and Àfora Focus Edicions, the book had already made a strong debut on the market, reaching third place in its first week and remaining in the top five best‑selling titles ever since.
The novel offers an ambitious historical fresco that intertwines the destinies of three major Catalan lineages—nobility, bourgeoisie, and working class—in a story shaped by power, luxury, and social tension. This choral portrait has resonated strongly with readers, establishing Passeig de Gràcia as one of the standout choices both as a gift and as a personal discovery.
