Presentation of book 'Rigor Mortis' by Tura Soler at Ordis

Don't miss the presentation of the book 'Rigor Mortis' by Tura Soler at the Ordis Social Center, at 7 p.m.!

The renowned coroner Narcís Bardalet reflects on life and death based on cases that have marked his career.

Dr. Narcís Bardalet is known as the "confidant of death" or "the man who speaks with the dead." Among the thousands of cases in his career as a coroner, he has performed a retrospective autopsy of Jesus Christ, he has embalmed Salvador Dalí and buried him three times, and he has had a supposed Egyptian mummy on the autopsy table. His fame has taken off so much that there are those who demand from his last wishes that, if he is killed or dies in an accident, Bardalet be the one to perform the autopsy.

In addition to being a forensic pathologist, he is a pediatrician, passionate about these two disciplines of medicine that, surprisingly, for him are very similar, since they require a great capacity for observation: children, like the deceased, do not speak but they give a lot of information if you know how to understand them..

With the help of the journalist Tura Soler, a great specialist in chronicling events with whom he has shared many cases and police investigations that have made the front pages of the newspapers, Narcís Bardalet recalls a fascinating personal and professional story, sometimes tender and other times shocking..
