Tres Homes Dins D'una Barca (Sense comptar-hi el gos)

In a cramped cabin of a modest boat, three weary companions—George, Harris, Montmorency—and an unnamed narrator sit smoking and swapping tales of their endless ailments. Their conversation drifts from dizzy spells to liver woes, each man cataloguing symptoms as if reading a pharmacy catalogue could cure the malaise of their lives. The narrator’s obsessive self‑diagnosis, spurred by a bizarre advertisement for miracle pills, turns the ordinary act of reading into a comic medical autopsy.

The narrative unfolds with a dry, encyclopedic humor that pokes fun at the language of doctors while exposing the characters’ deeper sense of hopelessness. As they argue about the best remedy—a river route versus a more conventional cure—their banter becomes a playful critique of how we confront uncertainty. Listeners will enjoy the blend of absurdity, witty footnotes, and the subtle melancholy of men adrift both literally and metaphorically.
