Josafat

by Prudenci Bertrana

Josafat, the bell-ringer of St. Mary's Church, finds himself navigating a complex moral landscape after the death of his companion. He encounters two individuals who lead him into a realm of forbidden pleasures, challenging his deeply held religious beliefs and the societal norms he has always adhered to. The narrative explores the tension between personal desires and spiritual obligations, the weight of societal expectations, and the complexities of human relationships.
