A writer and multidisciplinary artist, she signed her creations with the male pseudonym Víctor Català, the name of the main character of one of her unfinished novels. Solitud, published in 1905, is a seminal work of modernism. She grew up in a family of rural landowners, and she inherited her interest in the literary world from her grandmother. In 1898 she won two prizes at the Jocs Florals of Girona for the poem ‘Lo llibre nou’ and the monologue ‘La infanticida’. The reaction this sparked in the literary world of the day, astonished that a woman was capable of writing a text of such high quality, profoundly disappointed her, and she soon choose a male pseudonym which she would keep for the rest of her writing career. El cant dels mesos, Drames rurals, Ombrívoles and Lo llibre blanc are some of her most prominent works, along with the aforementioned Solitud, which made her one of the key female exponents of the Catalan literary tradition. She also held posts in the cultural field, such as the presidency of the 1917 Jocs Florals of Barcelona and participated as a member of the Catalan Language Academy in 1915 and the Barcelona Academy of Belles Lettres after 1923. The Llucmajor stop is located near the secondary school which is named after her.
