SABATO CON L'AUTRICE: Vorrei spendere due parole

About the event

The last event in the autumn edition of SABATO CON L'AUTORE, a series of literary meetings, brings together Ledro-born author and poet Stefania Boccagni and her latest book "Vorrei spendere due parole", in conversation with Sara Crosina.

The book collects short stories populated by unusual characters — troublemakers, thieves, opportunists, drug dealers, people without papers, false friends, serial liars, and others with no clear place in the world — who are, one by one, found out and unmasked.

The author observes them with a disenchanted eye, and now and then a mocking smile.

About Ledro

Ledro is a mountain valley just west of Riva, reached through the tunnel on the SS240 or, for walkers and cyclists, up the old Ponale road carved into the cliff. The municipality was formed in 2010 from the villages around the lake and along the valley: Molina, Pieve, Mezzolago, Bezzecca, Tiarno and others.
