138 pages. One journey across the world. A silence that never quite leaves you.

Silk follows Hervé Joncour, a French merchant who travels to Japan in the 1860s in search of silkworm eggs. What he finds there is something he cannot name and cannot forget.

Translated into more than 50 languages, Baricco wrote it in a style so spare it almost disappears. What remains is the feeling.

📚A brilliant pianist. A ship that never docks. A narrative that unfolds over the span of a single monologue.

Novecento, penned by Alessandro Baricco, was originally intended for stage performance, yet it resonates just as powerfully on the page; perhaps even more so. It’s the type of book you can devour in an afternoon, and carry with you for years to come.

🇮🇹 A partire dal 3 agosto 2026 la versione cartacea della carta di identità cesserà di essere valida per l’espatrio, indipendentemente dalla data di scadenza riportata sul retro.

Il DL 26/06/2026 n.108 ha introdotto alcune modifiche importanti:
– La Carta d’Identità Cartacea non scaduta può essere utilizzata come strumento identificativo nei rapporti con la Pubblica Amministrazione italiana e con i soggetti che erogano pubblici servizi, compresi i Consolati;
– I Comuni italiani in casi di urgenza possono emettere un documento d’identità provvisorio valido per l’espatrio, non rinnovabile, e con una validità non superiore a 6 mesi. Il documento potrebbe non essere accettato in alcuni Stati esteri: verifica i requisiti di ingresso su Viaggiare Sicuri.

Contatta il Consolato più vicino a te per conoscere le modalità di rilascio della nuova Carta di Identità Elettronica: https://www.esteri.it/it/ministero/struttura/laretediplomatica/ . Sono previsti appuntamenti dedicati per chi è sprovvisto di altri documenti.

Dal 1° giugno è possibile per i cittadini italiani residenti all’estero (AIRE) richiedere la CIE anche presso ogni Comune italiano, come specificato dalla Legge 19 gennaio 2026, n.11. Ricordati di portare con te il Codice Fiscale!

🇿🇦 Starting from August 3rd, 2026, the paper version of the Identity Card will cease to be valid for expatriation, regardless of its expiration date.

The Legislative Decree no. 108 of 26/06/2026 introduced some important changes:
– the unexpired paper Identity Card can be used for personal identification in relationships with the Italian Public Administration and with entities that provide public services, including Consulates;
– in urgent cases, Italian municipalities can issue a temporary identity document valid for expatriation, which is non-renewable and valid for no more than 6 months. The document may not be accepted in some foreign states: check the entry requirements on Safe Travel.

Contact the nearest Italian Consulate to learn how to apply for the new Electronic Identity Card (CIE): https://www.esteri.it/it/ministero/struttura/laretediplomatica/ . Dedicated appointments are available for those without other identification documents.

From June 1st, 2026, it is possible for Italian citizens residing abroad (AIRE) to apply for the CIE at every Italian municipality, as specified by Law no. 11 of January 19, 2026. Remember to bring your Fiscal Code with you
