«Mort de dama» is the play by Llorenç Villalonga and Jordi Pàmias Grau, published by Proa in paperback (128 pages, in Catalan).
The play unfolds in scenes around the deathbed of Doña Obdúlia de Moncada, the last great aristocrat of Palma, who embodies a past of splendor that disappears with her. Around her moves a small circle of characters governed by intrigue and self-interest, in a sarcastic portrait of Mallorcan society at the time.
The original novel appeared in 1931; this edition, part of the PROA-TNC collection, includes the theatrical adaptation by Marc Rosich and Rafel Duran.
For those interested in classic Catalan literature and theatrical adaptations of twentieth-century novels.
Llorenç Villalonga i Pons was a Balearic writer and psychiatrist. While he progressed in his medicine studies, Villalonga traveled to France, Barcelona and Murcia. He gained experience in psychiatry during his stay in France.
