Leonardo Traversi, dopo una lunga serie di fallimenti, lascia Roma e ritorna nella sua cittadina natale, Marina di Mezzo, dove un vecchio amico gli fa ottenere loccupazione di corrispondente locale per il quotidiano Provincia Sera.Ma questo lavoro, mal retribuito e ripetitivo, non lo soddisfa completamente. Il suo sogno e quello di diventare uno stimato scrittore. Inizia a scrivere racconti, che pero nessuna casa editrice prende in seria considerazione, nemmeno la piu scadente. Cosi, in un ambiente per molti versi ostile, tra incontri sbagliati e la perdita dei pochi amici, Leonardo si abbandona a un modello di vita apatico, in cui smarrisce ogni volonta di riscatto, vagando senza una meta precisa nella notte.Nel misterioso mondo notturno incrocia strani personaggi, che lo portano a riflettere sulla sua particolare condizione, indicandogli una possibilita di redenzione, che infine arriva con la figura sfuggente di una donna. La ragazza, sfortunata, insicura, dalla discutibile doppia vita, riesce tuttavia a trarlo in salvo dalla sua stupida esistenza e dalla sua solitudine, con degli sviluppi del tutto imprevedibili.Giuseppe Lucio Fragnoli e nato a Castelforte (LT) il 12 dicembre 1956.

My father was a man who knew how to talk to a young child, he could enter my world and stir my interest. While he was still alive, I typed all his handwritten works. After his passing, I discovered a partially typed and handwritten piece of work. It consisted of 4-5 translations and a few prose pieces, which I passed to his publisher. I have always been awed by his work, and these days I realize that interest in surrealism has been reignited. The revolution that the movement represented was important to many people, and for this reason, I decided to do my best to ensure that everything he wrote would be made available to the public. Such creators with such an innovative presence, like my father, are rare in our era.Errietti Engonopoulos,daughter of the poet

Sometimes words are ghosts dancing with myth and memory. Greek-Canadian poet Manolis Aligizakis demonstrates this in Impulses, his new collection of poems. His poetry springs from a congenital intimacy with a culture and its history. In essence, we are before a poetic glance that is also a revolving metaphor encircling feelings from a Mediterranean philosophy.Poets tend to be witnesses of paradoxes and to recreate them; its not a compromise between logic and the rational, its an absolute nouveau reality. With this new book, Manolis tells us that poetry is an affirmation of the soul, a witness for the dream. Fine poetry, there is.~ Eduardo Bettencourt Pinto
