A popular candidate for the Nobel Prize, one of the most important writers in the Spanish contemporary literary world, the story of the spiritual escape of a middle-aged poisonous tongue man suffering from "literary inflammation" is a contemporary literary classic that complements "Bartleby Syndrome". "Montano's Literary Disease" was first published in 2002. It is another masterpiece with a distinctive personal style by the famous Spanish writer Enrique Villa-Matas. Its style ranges between private diaries, novels, emotional experiences, autobiographical novels and essays. The five chapters are like five books with different genres. Literary critic Rosario Girondo and his son Montano both suffered from literary disease, but the symptoms were exactly the opposite: Montano encountered writer's block, could no longer write anything, and frantically wanted to return to literature; Rosario fell into a morbid fanaticism for books, and he felt breathless and just wanted to forget literature completely. Both of their illnesses stem from the excessive presence of literature in their lives, which their father calls "Montano's literary disease." In order to save himself, Rosario embarked on a Quixotic spiritual journey, traveling to Nantes, France, Valparaiso, Chile, and the Azores Islands in the North Atlantic. However, as the trip came to an end, his literary disease became more serious. This novel won Villa Matas several important literary awards, including the Spanish Novel Prize (2002), the Spanish Literary Criticism Prize (2002), and the French Medici Foreign Novel Prize (2003). It made him the first Spaniard to win the Medici Foreign Novel Prize. It is an ideal choice to understand the writer's unique creative style.
