Summary

È il 1946 quando Amerigo lascia il suo rione di Napoli e sale su un treno. Assieme a migliaia di altri bambini meridionali attraverserà l'intera penisola e trascorrerà alcuni mesi in una famiglia del Nord; un'iniziativa del Partito comunista per strappare i piccoli alla miseria dopo l'ultimo conflitto.

Con lo stupore dei suoi sette anni e il piglio furbo di un bambino dei vicoli, Amerigo ci mostra un'Italia che si rialza dalla guerra come se la vedessimo per la prima volta. E ci affida la storia commovente di una separazione. Quel dolore originario cui non ci si può sottrarre, perché non c'è altro modo per crescere.

Wonderful, touching and engaging

This is an excellent book, moving and poignant. I listened to it with my husband in Italian: superb!

straordinario

Libro straordinario da non perdere. Da non dimenticare. Peccato per la lettura, priva di un indispensabile accento napoletano

The narrative is beautiful and read perfectly

There was absolutely nothing I disliked. It gave a very personal insight into the meridione/settetrione and the question of what makes a home, a family, roots in a place. Excellent

L’accento…

Il libro è molto bello ma per un protagonista napoletano che parla in prima persona e con tanti modi dire dialettali era necessario scegliere un lettore con inflessione napoletana ! Peccato.

Bello a metà

Partito bene, la storia dà il meglio quando il racconto è sull’infanzia. Dopo cede al melenso, al ripetitivo, al ridondante e allo scontato.
