Story
Quando usciva dal Cinema Mirone, quel tornado di ragazzina si sentiva Jean Gabin dalla testa ai piedi. Ribelle, appassionata, braccata come lui, con una sigaretta immaginaria all'angolo delle labbra, Goliarda girava per la casbah di Catania come Jean per quella di Algeri. Poi se ne tornava a casa, dalla sua grande famiglia irregolare, resistente, chiassosa come una nave in festa. Io, Jean Gabin racconta tutto questo raccontando un pugno di giorni. È un tassello di quella che Goliarda Sapienza chiamava "autobiografia delle contraddizioni".

Story
Una exitosa periodista que durante muchos años ocultó un gran secreto. El de su familia. Una familia al mismo tiempo profundamente disfuncional y tremendamente viva, vibrante. El padre, Rex, es un hombre carismático y entusiasta, que logra transmitir a sus hijos la pasión por vivir. Les enseña física, geología, les cuenta historias. Pero Rex es alcohólico, y cuando está borracho se convierte en una persona destructiva y poco de fiar. La madre es un espíritu libre, una pintora muy orgullosa de su arte que aborrece la idea de una vida convencional.

La viva voce dell'intellettuale più lucida e appassionata del nostro tempo torna a visitarci per una formidabile resa dei conti sul potere, il femminismo, la fede, la letteratura. Ma soprattutto sulle dieci vite che ha vissuto con incantata sfacciataggine, senza paura, ripercorse oralmente nell'unica autobiografia organica possibile per una che ha attraversato il mondo correndo scalza, bruciando luminosamente ogni tappa. Alla vigilia di una morte che l'ha trovata gioiosa come una martire capace di cantare mentre avanza verso i leoni, Michela Murgia ha trascorso una settimana a raccontarsi a Beppe Cottafavi.
