Through December, the periodic quarterly review that, for the third year in a row, the municipality is organizing to promote reading among different age groups is back. The title chosen for this year's edition is "For a Community that Reads," and in addition to hosting events at the library, it also features them at the Figline Praetorian Palace, the Ridotto of the Garibaldi Theater and the Il Giardino social center.
And it is precisely at the social center Il Giardino that a new event in the review, dedicated to reading the great Italian classics, will take place on Friday, Oct. 27 (4:30 p.m.; Dalla Chiesa Gardens).
Curating the event, organized by the Garden and titled "From Scapigliatura to Verism," will be Angelo Australi.
Excerpts from Giovanni Verga's "The Agony of the Journey" and Giovanni Faldella's "Figurines" will be read for the occasion.
In addition, other authors, such as Giosuè Carducci, Carlo Dossi, Luigi Capuana and Federico De Roberto , will also be explored.
Free admission.
