«Mort accidental d'un anarquista» is the satirical play by Dario Fo, published by Proa in paperback (128 pages, in Catalan).
In 1921 an Italian anarchist fell from a window of the central police station in New York during a police interrogation. From this real event, Dario Fo writes a satirical farce in which a madman poses as a judge and exposes police corruption, the manipulation of truth and the impunity of power.
Catalan translation by Guillem-Jordi Graells of the Italian original «Morte accidentale di un anarchico» (1970), in the Òssa Major Teatre collection. Dario Fo won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1997.
For readers interested in contemporary classical theatre, political satire and the work of Nobel laureate Dario Fo, as well as for those who read in Catalan.
Dario Luigi Angelo Fo was an Italian playwright, actor, theatre director, stage designer, songwriter, political campaigner for the Italian left wing and the recipient of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Literature. In his time he was "arguably the most widely performed contemporary playwright in world theatre". Much of his dramatic work depends on improvisation and comprises the recovery of "illegitimate" forms of theatre, such as those performed by giullari and, more famously, the ancient Italian style of commedia dell'arte.
