Flors i Viatges. La guerra i les dones de Mercè Rodoreda

An exhibition on the presence of war and of women in the work of Mercè Rodoreda, on show at the Sala dels Trinitaris in Vilafranca del Penedès.

The exhibition Flors i Viatges. La guerra i les dones de Mercè Rodoreda explores the presence of war and of women in the work of the Catalan writer Mercè Rodoreda. The title, in Catalan, sums up the central theme of a show that traces these two subjects through its rooms.

The exhibition is housed in the Sala dels Trinitaris, a space in Vilafranca del Penedès devoted to exhibitions and cultural activities. Given its subject, it will appeal to anyone wishing to approach the history of Catalonia through the eyes of one of its women writers, as well as to those already familiar with Rodoreda's work.

As the title indicates, the common thread is the relationship between war and women in Rodoreda's work, and the route through the rooms is organised around that link.
