Quim Carandell, vocalist and leader of The Ludwig BandHe's an avid and experienced reader. With his bandmates from the Empordà region, he spends half the week traveling all over Catalonia to festivals and local festivals. But, amidst all the hustle and bustle of the road, he also has plenty of idle hours of traveling and waiting, which are made more enjoyable with a good book in his hands. For this summer, Carandell recommends one he hasn't read yet: The truth about the Savolta case, by Eduardo Mendoza, one thriller well woven about murders and gunmen in Barcelona in the first half of the 20th century.
