PRESS RELEASE (17/08/2015)
Tuesday, August 18, a Loano, the review Culture Tuesday will host the presentation of the box set “Loano vintage good life” mini “opera omnia” of loanese George Genta.
The book presentation, scheduled at 6 p.m., in the’Prince's Garden Summer Arena, is promoted by the’Department of Tourism, Culture and Sports of the City of Loano and organized by the I.So THeatre.
“The box set," explains the author. George Genta - brings together a series of small books recounting the customs and traditions, mythological characters and real figures, history and stories around the fairyland with its legendarily mild climate where I live. When you go back in time, once you start, it is hard to stop: having exhausted the personal memories of early youth, you easily move on to the stories of grandparents and great-grandparents, then to the famous characters, half myth and half history, of whom those grandparents used to fabulate in the evenings around the fire with a glass of wine in hand. To make a long story short, the journey back in search of the lost characters, men and women with traits so typically current and local that they seem like neighbors and citizens of today, while centuries have passed, has concluded in five small books.”
Serving as hostess and in dialogue with the author will be. Graziella Frasca Gallo, curator of the meetings.
The book presentation will be accompanied by the musical notes of Maestro Roberto Sinito.
The meeting will close with a aperitif.
