Moira Lilli will be at Giunti Odeon to present her book I Swear to Be Faithful (Rogiosi), accompanied by Rita Pecci.

The book:

“Society moves fast, shifting rapidly into a thousand different shapes, changing direction, and we must always feel up to the task—keeping pace, tuning in perfectly to a channel with ever-changing frequency. Pain, however, does not move at this rhythm. It is slow, creeping, relentless, cruel, often sadistic. It works like a woodworm, wearing us down, making us look fine on the outside while damaged within. Only the dust we absentmindedly drop as we walk may be a sign, but everyone is rushing and no one stops to look at it. In this world, what makes the news are dazzling successes and pathetic miseries, extraordinary victories and crushing defeats—not the silent dust of those who suffer.”
