"The characters in Deledda's novels are female, it is true, but the stories are told in the male". Franca Carboni made her debut with these words at the meeting in honor of the Nuorese writer Nobel Prize for Literature, held at the MaC Lula entitled: "Grazia Deledda and the psychoanalyst's bed". The meeting presented by Domenico Fumagalli, creator of the Museum of Contemporary Art, was attended by Professor Bachisio Porru who, in addition to drawing up an unpublished profile of Deledda, spoke with the child neuropsychiatrist, author of essays on Deledda's narration.

Carboni ranges from the condition of Nuoro society in the last century to the condition of women, deeply felt and described in great detail in the novels of the Nuoro writer in the early twentieth century. «The woman - says Carboni speaking with a large and attentive audience - was the protagonist inside the house, at a time when they were not allowed to go out, therefore the protagonist of a world whose rules were given by the males of the family». «A world in which the rules are still partly declined to the masculine - says Bachisio Porru in his fascinating description of Grazia Deledda and her monumental work - a world that still cannot place it in a well-defined narrative period, and a school that it is still slow to include it in educational courses, despite the cultural value of its novels and short stories».
