Titoli in Letteratura e fiction

"Mort de Dama" és la primera novel·la escrita per Llorenç Villalonga i Pons i és considerada una de les primeres novel·les modernistes de les Illes Balears. La novel·la és una sàtira de la societat mallorquina i gira entorn de l'agonia d'Obdúlia de Montcada, una viuda que representa l'aristocràcia, una dona avariciosa i de caràcter fort. La viuda fa d'eix temàtic amb la resta de personatges que mostren els diferents vessants de la societat de l'illa, des dels terratinents nobiliaris i aristòcrates al món intel·lectual i literari.

Humor and overall literary style have changed a lot in the 132 years since this book was published in 1889. However, the information remains informative, primarily because there is a certain amount of truthfulness about it that manages to disregard the passage of time. It takes in some unusual events that either did happen, or could have. It involves three men and a dog that is sometimes smarter than any of them. Between them, they come up with some depth of thought and at least a minor ability to understand human nature.
