Joan-Lluís Lluís in 2012

Joan-Lluís Lluís (Perpignan, 1963) is an award-winning Catalan writer. His works include five novels and a collection of essays entitled Conversa amb el meu gos sobre França i els francesos (Conversation with my Dog about France and the French, 2002). This last work, which Lluís himself describes as a pamphlet,[1] focuses on the precarious linguistic situation of the Catalans under French administration.

He is co-author, with musician Pascal Comelade, of a manifesto published in 1998 by linguistic and cultural activists from Northern Catalonia.[2]

His 2004 novel El dia de l'ós (The Day of the Bear) won the prestigious Joan Crexells Prize.
