Josafat, bell-ringer of Girona Cathedral, lives trapped between extreme religiosity and repressed erotic impulses. When he meets Fineta, a prostitute, his inner conflict erupts and the two begin a sacrilegious relationship in the bell tower, marked by desire and guilt, which leads him to a tragic end.
Work originally published in 1906; this Catalan edition is part of the Butxaca collection from Edicions 62.
For readers interested in classics of Catalan modernism and early 20th-century European narrative.
