“He felt love like an immense mountain in front of him, a frightening and beautiful height.”
An evening to enter the most restless and visceral heart of Dino Buzzati, through the pages of An Love, the novel published in 1963 that still surprises today with its extraordinary modernity.
Far from the fantastic atmospheres that made the author famous, Buzzati takes the reader into the nocturnal, feverish and disenchanted Milan of the boom years, where architect Antonio Dorigo is overwhelmed by passion for Laide. An absolute, ambiguous, painful love: made of desire, jealousy, illusions and a desperate need to be reciprocated.
The voice and soul to give life to this vertigo will be Paolo Valerio, who will bring to life the relentless rhythm of Buzzati's writing, transforming words into breath, tension and emotion.
A reading to rediscover a work that not only tells a love story, but lays bare the universal fragility of those who love, desire and continue to hope even when reality seems to say otherwise.
A voice. A story. A love without defenses.
Free entrance.
