small feast of Italian writers.
Rossovermiglio Benedetta Cibrario, Campiello Prize 2008, is the feature debut of writer Florence. The story unfolds in fits and starts of time, between past and present, between youth and old age with an ending a bit 'pulled away, where the truth is revealed in a very cold and formal correspondence. The atmosphere of the beautiful countryside of Siena in which the protagonist is living. Rated 6.5
Come to the world Margaret Mazzantini instead is a small masterpiece. There is everything in this book, love, history, the relationship with their children and their parents, and the war, the most cruel and bloody in the recent past. The story of the siege of Sarajevo is my favorite part, but every single page can be involved, you would never finish it. Unique stylistic note: the excessive use of metaphors Mazzantini. Rating 9
