Summary

Arrebato is an autobiographic recital on the mystical implications of the culture of image, of what we could call pop culture. During the second half of the 20th century, pop movements made every effort to surmount the limits of daily experience and linguistic media experience to become the forefront of what was to be called the "show society". Arrebato narrates in a quasi-mythological manner the nihilistic implications of these trends which are inherent to audio-visual culture.
