Editors will still be needed to find and look after talent, but instead of managing they will become employees. We are facing an avalanche of information, so editors will be needed to sort it out, but their role will be important in a different way. The role of the editor will also change because distribution is in the hands of a few big companies, such as Amazon, which are making very cheap offers to attract customers and once they have them, we'll see what happens. There have always been many more books than we can read, and now all the business structures in the world of books tend to reduce, but we are just at the beginning of the change. It has traditionally been the country that publishes most and reads the least in Europe. In Spain, we have always had this problem. I hope that in 30 years' time will be someone here with new ideas and finding new authors. Though it's also true that I have given it my all.

I never thought that I would feel so accomplished and happy through La Campana. What's more, our team of contributors, such as Imma Falcó, Xavier Pàmies, Marc Sánchez, or Romanyà, give us stability and make us a great team. I am now the visible face of La Campana, but with Joana and Anna, and Espinàs, we have shared it all almost from the beginning. So, thank you booksellers and readers for the confidence.

Three years topping sales for Sant Jordi is a gift that not even the most ambitious can dream of.

Another satisfaction is that our translations have helped the Catalan language, through bestsellers, such as La petita història dels tractors en ucraïnès, Wonder, L'alegria de viure or L'avi de 100 anys and L'analfabeta, which even surpassed sales in Spanish here. I look back and I'm surprised to see so many books and authors: from Terricabras to Cardús via Xavier Roig (Ni som ni serem, La dictadura de la incompetència), Joan Barril (Un submarí a les estovalles), Porta (Tor), Gabancho (El segle XX a través de les àvies) or Sánchez Piñol (La pell freda and Victus) and Carles Capdevila (Criatura i companyia). I never imagined La Campana would last 30 years.
