Pep Coll

[1] A prolific author, he has cultivated all literary genres, including journalism (having contributed articles to the newspapers Segre and El Periódico and the magazine Descobrir Catalunya).

His beginnings as a teacher go back to La Pobla de Segur (Pallars Jussà), where he was for five years and where he became interested in the Catalan language.

[2] After passing his exams, he decided to forge a new path in the city of Lleida because his previous lived experience as a student in Barcelona was not very comforting.

[2] There he worked as a teacher of Catalan Language and Literature at the secondary school IES Màrius Torres from 1980 to 2010.

During those years, he combined teaching with writing professionally, publishing books and also contributing to various periodicals.
