«Cuatro corazones con freno y marcha atrás» is the theatrical comedy by Enrique Jardiel Poncela, published by Editorial Vicens Vives in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
The play presents the peculiar story of a group of characters who manage to stop their ageing, discovering that living forever brings unexpected and tragicomic consequences. With the absurd and witty humour characteristic of Jardiel Poncela, the piece combines social criticism with far-fetched situations around love and the passage of time, inviting reflection on the meaning of life and old age.
