Bergold

Pep Montserrat
Josep Lluís Badal

"A book with 30 chapters inspired by the Goldberg variations, which are read as delicate miniatures that evolve and transform just as music, dreams and all the lives within a life do"

Little Bergold wakes up every morning as a different character: one day he is a watchmaker, another a cowboy, and the next a mountain, or a whale. He never has enough! The way he sees it, there are many lives to be lived and he can be many Bergolds at the same time. While living different lives, there is always a tune in the background, a sleepless clavichord plays endless musical variations. And while it plays, the adventurous Bergold, asks himself: Who am I? Who will I become tomorrow?
