The novel Your Honor (1991) by the prominent Catalan writer Jaume Cabré was written long before his famous I Confess. But even then the writer was worried about the topic of the powerful, judicial corruption and absolute power, for which there is only the right of the strong. Winter 1799. It rains in Barcelona, ​​the city seems to be paralyzed, and yet social life is in full swing. It seems that the aristocrats only care about how to celebrate the advent of the new, nineteenth century. Te Deum is performed in the cathedral, and a series of secular receptions unfolds in luxurious halls ... But the strange murder of a French singer overshadows the festive atmosphere. A young poet was arrested, who happened to be "in the wrong place at the wrong time." He was unconditionally found guilty, especially since he was found to have documents that could lead to the fall of "your honor" - Don Rafael Masso, President of the Supreme Court. It is known that this man, endowed with the power to execute or pardon, has one weakness: he loves beautiful women. So what will outweigh: justice or power, the executioner or the victim, “I didn’t kill her!” one or “I didn’t want this” of the other?.. For the first time in Russian!
