Pau Joan Hernàndez was born in Barcelona in 1967, and currently lives in Bigues i Riells. He began to dedicate himself to literature from an early age, and at eighteen years old, his first children's novel was published:"Tot et serà pres" is a realist work which looks at the topic of euthanasia, and with more than twenty eight editions, it has become his biggest success. Later, however, his work evolved more along the lines of fantasy fiction, or fiction which combines fantasy and reality. He currently combines literary creation with literary criticism in the pages of the newspaper "Avui", and translation (from Castilian, Basque, French and Galician)
