An Orchard in Concrete

I've been lost for a while, but I'm on my way back to myself. Hail Eris.

Found in Sarzana, Italy. A place with obvious social issues, but someone there has culture.

There are songs whose beauty never fades. And voices. “You, you that are different, at least you in the universe“

Reading Purple Haze Feedback, every time I read Murolo’s name I can’t help thinking of this beautiful song. Mia Martini was a national treasure <3

In your sullen gaze / I see no care for this place / And still somehow / You may find your heart here / Right here

If we all were judged according to the consequences

Of all our words and deeds, beyond the intention

And beyond our limited understanding

Of ourselves and others, we should all be condemned.

Il Primo Inverno: come il clima ci cambia

È uscito un nuovo episodio del nostro podcast! In questa settima puntata parliamo di uno dei miei libri preferiti, il romanzo storico "Il Primo Inverno - La piccola era glaciale e l'inizio della modernità europea" di Philipp Blom (Marsilio editore, 2017). È un bellissimo saggio storico sulla piccola glaciazione che colpì l’Europa nel XVII secolo e di come quel cambiamento climatico fu cruciale per la nascita di quella che oggi chiamiamo ‘civiltà occidentale’. L’autore traccia un parallelo interessante tra il cambiamento climatico del 1600 e quello che stiamo affrontando oggi nel XXI secolo, e inevitabilmente ci troviamo a riflettere su come il clima sia fondamentale nel dare forma alle culture, all’economia e in generale alle società umane.  Possiamo usare il passato come monito per costruire il futuro?

I have few regrets in my life...

but in 2019 Araki was guest at Lucca Comics & Games. I was there too, but I hadn’t watched JoJo yet so I totally missed him and the JoJo exposition.  I had been curious about JoJo since the 90′s, as I remember seeing Vento Aureo and Steel Ball Run being advertised at the end of other manga volumes. The thing that kept me from reading it was the insane amount of volumes I had to buy, so I’m really happy the anime landed on Netflix.
