Shrek, Kebabs i la Caiguda de Iugoslàvia

What do Shrek, kebabs, and the Balkan War have in common? In this academic-festive, insightful, and self-parodic lecture, the poet and his friends explain what you encounter when you reach the end of language.

Using words and PowerPoint, slide by slide, we will talk about men, pop culture, psychoanalytic delusions, the history of a vanished country, mass tourism in grim settings, Shrek memes, the metaphysics of the history of gastronomy, erotic desire, princesses, Tomàs Molina, the pain of others, cemeteries, speed, genocide, poetry, castles, and fear.
