«Nabí» is the narrative poem by Josep Carner, published by labutxaca in paperback (216 pages, in Catalan).
Nabí means «prophet» in biblical Hebrew. The poem, structured in ten cantos, recreates the story of Jonah: Jahveh orders him to go and preach in Nineveh, but the prophet resists fulfilling the mission. From the biblical fable, Carner develops a reflection on disobedience, piety and forgiveness with a language of great lyrical richness.
Edition by Jaume Coll, with a prologue by Gabriel Ferrater (1970); includes the editor's introduction, a study on the composition of the work and a complete rhyme index. Work originally published in 1941.
Recommended for readers of Catalan poetry and for those who follow the work of Josep Carner.
