«Decameró» is the contemporary theater play by Davide Carnevali and nine other authors, published by Arola Editors in paperback (144 pages, in Catalan).
This book is based on Boccaccio's Decameron and the movie by Pier Paolo Pasolini (1970). In the medieval classic, ten young people flee to the countryside from the bubonic plague of Florence and spend ten days telling erotic and popular tales. Pasolini moved those stories to Naples to portray a social reality resistant to consumer culture.
It is part of the Textos a part collection of contemporary theater and includes an introduction by Xavier Albertí.
It will appeal to readers of contemporary theater and to those who want to revisit the Decameron and its echo in Pasolini.
Narcís Comadira i Moragriega is a Spanish poet, painter, playwright, translator, journalist and literary critic. His poetry is rather classical in nature, with a contemplative theme and a certain ironic point of view. As a painter, he understands his work as an extension of poetry. His first works show references to surrealism and pop culture, as well as his master Domènec Fita. In the late 70's he left the figurative painting to begin to represent nature and architecture, specializing in a very personal landscape and marked by realism, which in his latest work is leading to a synthesis of it, where fewer and fewer elements appear in his works.
