The Wild One
For the rich and divorced sexagenarian Joaquim Simon, the young Dorothy (fourteen years old, red hair and freckles) is a breath of fresh air. He is determined to transform the untamed Dorthy into a perfect, prideworthy role model. So, Joaquim adopts her and thus begins his Pygmalion strategy.
This novel, awarded with the Sant Jordi Novel Prize 1993, is a harsh rumination on the desire for possession and the destruction it might bring forth. The Wild One is a fascinating story about the demons of control and domination and the illusion of love that it causes in its victims.
