SCOTT ALSWORTH foresees the coming of the smaller, leaner, and class conscious indie studio, with art as its guiding star
Novel of lust and lunacy that enraged Spain
Josafat
by Prudenci Bertrana
(Francis Boutle, £8.99)
WHEN Josafat was first published in 1906, it caused outrage in Catalonia. A tale of lust and lunacy, it was Prudenci Bertrana’s response to accusations that he had penned a morally dubious novella.
Bertrana (1867-1941) was born into a family with land and property in Girona and Esparra and affiliated to the right-wing Carlist variant of the Catholic church.
