All'età di 12 anni decisi di abbandonare l'istinto per intraprendere una razionalità esasperata, ero stufa di stare nel mio mondo perché lì mi sentivo inadeguata e fuori posto, volevo piacere agli altri ed essere accettata. Ho indossato così tante maschere nel tempo da dimenticarmi chi ero e anche chi sono. La mia vera natura! In questo estenuante tentativo di non mostrare debolezze, di lottare e combattere sempre, mi sono persa lungo un terreno disseminato di trappole e ho smesso di scrivere. Dopo anni passati ad inaridire sempre di più la mia interiorità, l'anima ha iniziato a gridare il suo dolore riversando disagi anche sul fisico e sono stata costretta a fermarmi e ad ascoltarla ripercorrendo passo dopo passo la via di casa. Ritornando in quei campi dove scrivevo da bambina con, sullo sfondo, la montagna (il Monviso) dove tutto ebbe inizio. È incredibile come i condizionamenti esterni possano cambiare una vita, distorcerla, reprimerla. L'anima reclamava il suo paradiso perduto, era dunque giunto il momento di tornare da quella bambina che nessuno comprendeva per iniziare ad ascoltarla, abbracciarla e aiutarla ad avere il coraggio di scrivere liberamente senza più paure ne giudizi. Ognuno di noi ha già dentro di sé la cura ai suoi disagi e, se concede spazio e visibilità al bambino interiore, di sicuro lui gli mostrerà la via. Questo libro mi ha obbligata a rimettere in discussione la mia vita, ad uscire dalla zona di confort che mi faceva sentire al sicuro, a mettermi a nudo spogliandomi del superfluo e ad abbracciare la me bambina per un nuovo inizio più in linea col mio sentire.

As one of the best-known survivors of the concentration camps, Primo Levi's testimony to his experiences in Auschwitz is internationally recognised as one of the most significant works of the last century. This volume examines each of Levi's works in detail, assessing and analysing the influence of Levi's time in Auschwitz on his writing. It identifies a variety of thematic, temporal, stylistic and linguistic echoes of Levi's concentration camp testimony, and traces these echoes throughout his subsequent, apparently unrelated, work. The book provides original and fascinating insights into the works of this remarkable writer, giving readers a new understanding and perspective on the immense significance and the pervasive influence of the holocaust on Levi's creative output.

Dreaming Sophia is a magical look into Italy, language, art, and culture. It is a story about turning dreams into reality and learning to walk the fine line between fact and fantasy. When tragedy strikes, Sophia finds herself alone in the world, without direction and fearful of loving again. With only her vivid imagination to guide her, she begins a journey that will take her from the vineyards in Sonoma, California to a grad school in Philadelphia and, eventually, to Italy: Florence, Lucca, Rome, Verona, Venice, and Val d'Orcia. Through dreamlike encounters, Sophia meets Italian personalities--princes, poets, duchesses, artists, and film stars-- who give her advice to help put her life back together. Following a path that takes her from grief to joy, she discovers the source of her creativity and learns to love again, turning her dreams into reality.
