Dialoghi col vulcano. Storie di corsa e altri amori

In a flow of emotions that draw from melancholy and laughter, from dreamlike realities to the harshest and most cutting reality, Ersilia Saffiotti recounts her stories of a woman searching for herself, for her guardian angel, a street urchin like her, and for her Neapolitan identity, steeped in flesh and lightness. Life bursts forth through Mariam, "recognized" on a difficult and distant continent, or Enza, the last of the last in her unruly resistance to life's assaults; or simply through the eyes of a stranger, encountered in a bar after a run. Over everything and every feeling, there is the voice of Vesuvius: like a root, like a generous friend who understands even when words and explanations fail him, like an idea secretly nurtured so as not to feel alone.
