Tre bauli: Un'epopea familiare dalla Toscana all'Argentina

A story of sacrifice, dream, hope, from Tuscany to Trentino until Buenos Aires, in search of a stable happiness around which to gather the family hearth. And at the same time the story of the union between two worlds, far yet very close to each other. Those two worlds are Italy, that Rachel left with her beloved Ottavio, and Argentina, where she has come to become Raquel . But they are also the emotional continents of a special relationship between the niece Sylvia, born in South America, and her grandmother Rachele, custodian of many fascinating experiences that she will offer to the child together with a language, Italian, resounding with echoes of ancient mysteries. "A poetic story with a delicate and tender language" (Elena Casaroli). Emotiva historia de inmigrantes italianos, colmada de sacrificios, sufrimientos y deleites. Un periplo por la region de La Toscana y El Trentino que seduce y entusiasma. El viaje hacia la busqueda de la paz y el progreso. Exaltacion de valores y culturas, rescatadas de los tiempos. Una nieta capturada por la fascinacion de la protagonista: su nona. Juntas descubren la fuente inagotable de las pequenas y sencillas cosas. La capacidad y la simplicidad de la autora para contar esta historia, enaltecen todo aquello que quienes hoy somos abuelos, anoramos de nuestra propia infancia. Es un relato, con un lenguaje poetico, sutil y tierno. Amalgama de emociones. Un testimonio que conmueve. 1stSpanish edition: Tres baules , Editorial Martin, Mar del Plata 2012 1st Italian edition: June 2014
