Tempio, the show of “A Candy Carol” for Christmas enhances the square Fabrizio De André

A delicate poem spreads among the candy colors that paint the Tempio Pausania square dedicated to Fabrizio De André. "A Candy Carol", the fairytale installation that enchants and enraptures children and adults, is a tribute to the British novelist Charles Dickens who, in December 1843, published one of the most beloved literary classics of all time: A Christmas Carol.

Defined by a recent film as the man who invented Christmas, the writer, thirty-one at the time, was inspired by the widespread poverty of many English families and the unjust living conditions of the little ones to represent the value and the true meaning of Christmas . The redemption and metamorphosis of Scrooge, the miserly protagonist with a heart of stone of the short novel, pass through compassion, generosity and care for the less fortunate.

This soft island of sweetness and joy wants to be a caress and a gift of lightheartedness for the little ones and a modest tribute to the sensitivity of an extraordinary pen that has stimulated the imagination, generosity and hope of an incalculable number of young readers for almost two centuries of history.
