07/27/2017

Sisma confirms sponsorship for the 21st edition of the Festivaletteratura which will animate the city of Mantua from September 6th to 10th.

360 writers and guest artists, 231 events between shows, readings, and workshops will bring everyone closer to the fascinating world of books, creating an important opportunity for growth and intellectual enrichment for everyone.

Two events are sponsored by Sisma during Festivaletteratura, both scheduled for Saturday, 9th of September :

- Domenico Starnone's intervention, winner of Strega Prize in 2001 with the novel "Via Gemito", to be held at Palazzo San Sebastiano. He will present his new tragicomic work "Scherzetto" which, hidden in the folds of an unexpected encounter between a grandfather and a grandson, analyzes the theme of talent, which visits and abandons men to his liking.

- narrative intervention by Marco Baliani, Italian actor, author and director who, through reading his book "Whenever a story is told" offers listeners a map of experiences based on orality, that particular form of communication which is the narrator's voice. The event will take place in the splendid setting of the Bibiena Theater.
