Through a scenic dialogue, the author confronts the creator with his own characters, who demand their place and their truth. The result is a journey through Oller’s narrative production that connects the reader with the dilemmas of romanticism, idealism, and literature as a mirror of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe play takes as its starting point the personality of Narcís Oller, a Catalan novelist who drew directly from reality to build his stories. His observations of his surroundings caused him problems, especially with the city of Valls, where some sectors felt they were portrayed too faithfully. The text proposes a confrontation between the author and his characters, who, like an echo of Pirandello’s characters without an author, assault him with their own demands. This scenic clash becomes a tour through all of Oller’s narrative production, as well as a deep reflection on the limits between reality and fiction, and romanticism and idealism as literary subterfuges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe conflict between reality and fiction in literary creation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe relationship between the author and his characters and their autonomy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe influence of the social and local context on narrative work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRomanticism and idealism as resources and tensions in writing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe figure of Narcís Oller and his work as a reflection of his environment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work is ideal for readers interested in contemporary theater that explores metafiction and the creative process.
