Biography At the age of 14, Martí i Pol started work in the office of a textile factory. He published his first poetry when he was only 15. Based on his experience in the factory, he wrote in 1959 a collection of poems called ''La fàbrica'' (the Factory). However, they were to remain unpublished until 1970 as his family were afraid that their publication might cause him to lose his job.

He was committed to the people of the town and factory and also to the social class to which they belonged. He wrote: “I want to speak of them/in speaking of people today/ I want to speak of them.
