Bernardini Stefano Benni
Like Stefano Benni, I like the sweetness of his stories, and especially the poetry of his characters, who are the real protagonists of the books he writes. Well
his latest novel, Bread Storm is just a book and poster-Benni Thought.
Among its pages, gathered around the Sports Bar, you'll find it all a gallery of his best characters, each with their own extravagant peculiarities, each allegory of the best of the worst human virtues and vices.
And you can watch them struggle for the salvation of the country Montelfo, threatened by the expansionist-cementificatorie of an array of unscrupulous businessmen and politicians maancheinciucisti.
E 'again a fierce struggle, a real battle between good and evil, because at stake is not only the fate of the small mountain town, but rather a way of life, indeed a civilization that does not lose sight of the really important things and that does not dazzle the unnecessary and damaging account of the incivility of profits, of all at once and 's appearance without memory. Benni
Again, use the pen to warn citizens of hosts (defined as human-urban areas, their readers) who live their lives according to, indeed suffering, a way of life aimed at the consumer as such, all individualistic 'extreme and ultimately more and more away from their true nature. Far from Nature.
course, that it seems rather ambitious literary project besides heavy hand Benni depicts this struggle with his personal slight, fairy-like palette.
invents characters and improbable delicious as each puts into the mouth a story (or parable if you want), only to create a choral narrative (the Sports Bar at the bottom is a place where everyone tells her story) that winds up fast the moving epilogue.
A reading light and healthy, that reminds us how easy it is to forget what is truly important and just as easy as can be expended in pursuit of vain appearances.
always helpful.
