Un pis al ensanche : Comedia en un acte y en prosa by José Feliú y Codina
Un pis al ensanche by José Feliú y Codina is a one-act comedy play written in the late 19th century. Set in contemporary Barcelona, it playfully satirizes apartment hunting, courtship, and social gossip among the urban middle class. The likely topic is a tangle of romantic misunderstandings that collide with the practical matter of renting a flat, all resolved through wit, revelation, and a notary’s paperwork. The story follows Feliu, a seasoned
bachelor about to marry Eulalia and move out of his beloved flat, which he is trying to rent. Two visitors arrive to see the place: Carreras, newly disenchanted with marriage, and Guadalupe, a young widow—who turn out to be former fiancés whose engagement collapsed over a scandalous name on their wedding guest list. With Feliu mediating, Guadalupe tells her side while Carreras is made to keep silent (even writing notes), until the quarrel’s cause is revealed: the dubious invitee was Eulalia—Feliu’s own bride-to-be. The absurdity breaks the tension; the couple reconciles, and Feliu cancels his own wedding and has the notary begin their contract. A final telegram reports that the notorious Miralles has married Eulalia anyway, neatly tying the knot on the farce and leaving Feliu free to keep his cherished apartment.
