Casa de Misericòrdia is a collection of poems by the author Joan Margarit, published in 2007. The poems explore themes of childhood, memory, and the human condition, with a focus on the experience of growing up in the post-war period. The Houses of Mercy were institutions that welcomed the most needy, especially orphans, during the author's childhood. Margarit reflects on the harshness of these institutions and the importance of poetry as a refuge and consolation.
