Author Núria Ortín Martínez will present her new book, Condemnes compartides, on Thursday, March 12th, in Mataró, offering a deep look into the human reality within prison walls.

The event will take place at 7:00 PM at Espai Tania Escalas, a women's wellness center in the Maresme capital. The presentation will include Laura Seijo, the Social Welfare councilor of the Mataró City Council.
The book, titled Condemnes compartides. Vides d'entrega, lluita i superació en un món hostil i invisible, explores the lives of incarcerated individuals. Through intimate stories, Núria Ortín aims to challenge social stigmas and highlight the importance of second chances.

"If we know the reality, we will empathize, and we will be able to change our perspective and social stigmas."
