Longlisted for the 2026 National Translation Award, Unnameable is Anna Gual's debut book in English translation. Her poems express life in all its unexpectedness, whether she is exploring relationships between human beings and the rest of our universe, between and within bodies, or language itself. Scientific inquiry informs her work as she observes both the visible and the invisible. She is a leading figure in the Catalan literary world, a prolific prize-winning author of eight collections of poetry. The judges for the National Translation Award wrote: "Constantly surprising and capturing the world anew in all its strangeness, these are at once profoundly visual poems, but also delicious soundscapes of meaning." Unnameable is bilingual in Catalan and English on facing pages.
