Il paradiso degli interstizi

by Pecchinenda Gianfranco
Il paradiso degli interstizi

Francesco and Giovanni, colleagues at university, meet again while working at the same department where they studied after twenty years. It’s the second Thursday of the month, and as usual the Council of Department meets for deliberating. An unexpected event breaks the routine of the Council modifying forever the life equilibrium of the two old friends. A fiction book, with fascinating phenomenological elements that leads the reader to wonder about the ephemeral boundary between the realty and the imagination, about tragedy between being and the desire to be something else. Philosophical, unusual, existentialist Gianfranco Pecchinenda through the life events of characters, tells the friendship, the complexity of the academic world, the disenchantment, the love, the desire of Knowledge. And in this vision made by dreams, successes and failures, the most important events of our own life become those that didn’t happen how we imagined because the life, independent from our decisions, takes a specific direction drawn by the Case or the Necessity.
