Saturday 26 returns "Books Buffet". At 7pm at the Antica Casa Olla the presentation of the book “Sillabario all'incontrario”. Ezio Sinigaglia talks with Michele Pipia, readings by Carlo Antonio Angioni. Candidate for the 2023 Strega Prize, it is an autobiographical novel that does not care about belonging to a genre, but has no qualms about crossing them all to understand the origins of the narrator's malaise, in a reflection as intimate as it is universal on the relationship with childhood , on family ties and the need to love and be loved. An investigation that touches on crucial issues: blood ties and non-biological paternity, the mystery of nature and the devastation of the environment, the scandal of bisexuality and the rejection of conventional roles. "Syllabary backwards" has the breath of a crime novel, the shamelessness of an intimate diary, the penetrating acumen of a self-analysis. All linked by a musical and ironic writing but also sincere and adhering to things like the language of children.

Between Words and Music instead proposes, again at 7 pm at the Marina Residence Tennis Club, a focus on the book "What happened to the Sardinian language?", with Maurizio Pretta, Anna Brotzu and other guests. At 20 then the narrative concert dedicated to 'Memory of the void by Marcello Fois. The legend of the Tiger of Ogliastra'. Starring Anna Brotzu on vocals and Andrea Congia on classical/synth guitar, also curators of dramaturgy.
