What Are The Signs Of Phenomnia

rizzagliata Camilleri

E 'release another story of Andrea Camilleri .
' s one of those published by Sellerio of Palermo, with that booklet-format the black cover that I love so much.

I will say that I loved Camilleri from the first reading of what I think is his masterpiece, "The brewer Preston" and since then I have not lost any volume production of fertile.

The rizzagliata is a story set in Palermo today, where it's incredible, Inspector Montalbano, not only does not exist, but even is cited as if it were really a fictional character. Sacrilege!

The protagonist is Michael Caruso, the director of the regional television news of RAI, which guides us - not without some uncertainty - through a world of mobsters, corrupt politicians and collusion, and collusion of corrupt bankers, business associates also Corrupt and collusive ... and then the wives of colleagues, guards, judges, journalists, all corrupt and collusive. Or at least, all puppets in the hands of the great puppeteer, who manovrerà now tame, now threatening, now cheating, all the actors in this comedy of the parties.

result is a bitter story, where there are no heroes, but where the best will simply step aside in time, when the machine will run and invest in, crushing all those who have been so naive or arrogant to be on its way.

The story works, the mechanics are quite convincing.

Yet.

say so, Camilleri loves those who love her writing in a Sicilian, a writing that while retaining its characteristic features, is easily readable by a Florentine immigrant in Milan. And 'hot, is special and makes you feel in Sicily.

Even his characters, it will normally make love. Transpires, unique, a whole humanity camilleriana which is the hallmark of his stories.

The rizzagliata confess that, for all humanity, there is no trace. As anticipated, all the characters are petty or too cynical at best. No escape.

And even the writing seems more dry, less friendly than in previous stories.

For premium, also tell me that this story seems to come from the evolution of the issues involved and the 'approach used by the writer in time. Following it faithfully for over ten years, it seems to me like he had accompanied Andrea in her mature, in his age.

tell you the truth, this tale is perhaps the least of all the stories Camilleri Camilleri.

seems a bit like a secret admirer, he wanted to pay homage to the great author had made a story and trying to trace the style and mood.

With a barely acceptable result.

short, I had to suggest a story about Camilleri, is not it.
