«La canasta» is the unpublished play by Miguel Mihura, published by Ediciones Cardeñoso in 1998 in paperback (124 pages, in Spanish).
A couple who have spent fifteen years in a hotel decide to get married and move into a house of their own. Social life, with visits and games of canasta, brings them changes of course and unexpected situations. The comedy combines agile dialogue with an ironic look at cohabitation and appearances.
The cover presents it as an «unpublished work» and as number 1 of the Biblioteca Mihura collection; records confirm the first edition of 1998.
For fans of theater and Spanish literature who want to discover an unpublished work by Mihura.
Miguel Mihura Santos was a Spanish playwright. He is best known for his comedy Tres sombreros de copa (1952), a work of absurd humor that predates similar works by Beckett or Ionesco and that broke with many of the previous conventions of Spanish comic theatre. He was also active as a comics artist.
