This month we are reading "L'eta' fragile" by Donatella di Pietrantonio, winner of the Premio Strega Giovani and finalist of Il Premio Strega 2024.

"It is the story of a family suspended in the secret of trauma, words never said locked in the heart of a mountain in Abruzzo, a place that is both physiological and a landscape. A book that cures pain by showing it, because the writer is a woman who knows the miracle of words and the bloodiness of wounds". - Vittorio Lingiardi

The winner of premio strega will be announced tomorrow with a special ceremony that you can watch on RaiPlay.
