Paradisos suportables
cases d'escriptors a Mallorca
Portell i Clar, Sebastià
A tour of the houses of some writers who found Mallorca their place to live and write."If you can bear it, Mallorca is paradise": it was with this phrase that the American poet Gertrude Stein convinced Robert Graves to choose to live in Mallorca when, after the First World War, he was looking for a place to retire. Paradisos suportables is a personal and literary tour, between the chronicle and the author's biography, through the homes of some of the main writers who have found their place to live and write in Mallorca. From George Sand to Antònia Vicens, passing through other classic authors such as Joan Alcover, Llorenç Villalonga, Maria-Antònia Salvà, Robert Graves and Blai Bonet, Paradisos suportables wants to confront work and life, landscape and creation, and to do so from the space of intimacy, of private papers, of understanding the vital and artistic projects of writers in the places they once inhabited.
