Les cartes

by Víctor Català

Amb una lucidesa impressionant, aquesta obra escrita l'any 1899 anticipa -i parodia avant la lettre- l'eclosió del com a producte de consum escènic. Una obra mestra, ras i curt, que amb la seva fascinant modernitat mereix ocupar un lloc destacat dins de l'imaginari teatral català.

About the author

Victor Català was the penname of Caterina Albert i Paradís, a catalan writer who took part in catalan Modernism movement. Her literary skill was first recognized in 1898, when she received the Jocs Florals (floral games) prize; soon thereafter, she began using the pseudonym Victor Català, taking it from the protagonist of a novel she never finished. Despite her success as a dramatist and her forays into poetry, she is best known for her work in narrative literature, with the force of her style and the richness of her diction being especially noted. She died in her hometown of l’Escala, Catalonia, in 1966 and is interred in the Cementiri Vell de l’Escala.
