Guendalina Middei accompanies us with passion and originality on a journey of discovery of nine giants of literature and, overcoming the idea that encyclopaedic knowledge is needed to understand and love them, infects us with an irresistible desire to read them.
Leopardi, Tolstoy, Manzoni, Mann, Kafka, Dostoevsky, Austen, Tomasi di Lampedusa and Orwell reveal the illusions we are ensnared in and give us extraordinarily modern tools for living in an uncertain present.
In this journey through some of their masterpieces, Guendalina listens to the voices that, like magical rafts, rise from their pages in search of those guiding stars that show the way in this strange thing called existence. In the characters, who move between stumbles, emotions and the search for a deeper meaning, the author hears the many questions that burn within us.
Anyone who loves reading that never ceases to surprise with its richness will find valuable suggestions for approaching these works and letting them speak to us, overcoming the difficulties they pose with little stratagems.
