Ariadna Tuxell writes because she doesn't know how to live without doing so. For her, it's a necessity, an instinct, an addiction she doesn't want to be cured of.
Since she was a child, stories have been her refuge, a way of understanding the world and also of challenging it.
Today, writing has become an exercise in emotional exploration, a game with morality, a way of putting herself in the shoes of characters who might never exist in real life, but who are as real to her as she is to herself. It is her way of bringing to life everything that disturbs, obsesses, and fascinates her.
In ‘Sombras en la ciudad,’ she immerses us in a world of corruption, power, and moral dilemmas, exploring the darkest corners of hidden Barcelona. In addition, the author enjoys provoking intense reactions in her readers. She wants them to get hooked, to suffer, to enjoy themselves, to finish a chapter and need to take a deep breath before continuing. “If I can achieve that, if I can make someone feel something profound with my words, then I know that writing makes sense,” she confesses.
