Marc Granell (València, 1953) is one of the most relevant Catalan poets of the last third of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century. He has described himself as a “urbanita”, because he has practically never lived outside his native València. The aim of this paper is to analyze how urban spaces are conceived in his poetry and to explore his vision about València, the city that has accompanied him throughout his 40 years of literary career.
