«La natura exposada» is the contemporary fiction novel by Erri De Luca, published by Bromera in paperback (168 pages, in Catalan).
In a mountain village, a sculptor helps people cross the border for free; a writer traveling with him decides to tell his story. When the media take an interest in his case, he moves to a coastal village, where a priest commissions him to restore a marble statue of Jesus Christ and give it genitals. The work reflects on the sacred and the profane.
It belongs to the L'Eclèctica collection (no. 294). Translation by Albert Pejó Orellana from the Italian original «La natura esposta».
For an adult audience interested in narrative with a religious background; recommended reading from age 16.
