Frost\u2019s Roads<\/h2>\n

In each shoe is a new path that marks
\nand transforms you. The only certainty is error.<\/p>\n

From here on, the winding trail begins,
\nof what you will do, what you could. And still<\/p>\n

on the crossroads, between two possibles,
\nsearching for a kernel of truth, you take a path.<\/p>\n

You feel the fresh grass under one foot.
\nWithout shoes, you cross limits.<\/p>\n

Els Camins de Frost<\/h2>\n

\ni esdevens l\u2019encertat equ\u00edvoc de ser tu.<\/p>\n

A partir d\u2019aqu\u00ed comen\u00e7a la giragonsa,

a la cru\u00eflla, pels dos senders possibles,
\nbuscant el nucli de l\u2019autenticitat, prens<\/p>\n

He has lived in\u00a0Santa Coloma de Gramenet, a city that strongly impressed his poetic trajectory, for the majority of his life. Jordi Valls presided over The\u00a0Associaci\u00f3 de Joves Escriptors en Llengua Catalana\u00a0(Association of Young Catalan Language Writers) from 1994 to 1996, and is a member of The\u00a0Associaci\u00f3 d’Escriptors en Llengua Catalana\u00a0(AELC) and The\u00a0PEN Club Catal\u00e0\u00a0(Catalan PEN Club).<\/div>\n

Having won The Jocs Florals de la Llengua Catalana in 2006, he is the first author to hold the office of Poet of The City. He currently works as a book seller in the city centre. Ernest Farr\u00e9s, author of the anthology,<\/span>\u00a021 poetes del XXI<\/i>\u00a0(2001), states that “In the hands of Jordi Valls poetry is not only subversion but it is most of all the essence of the literary fact”.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
