Un poema astratto che oscilla tra assurdo e realta, in una terra dove si ode l''eco del mondo moderno e dove l''autore lotta contro i sensi effimeri della Chimera." "surrealismo, s.m. automatismo psichico puro mediante il quale ci si propone di esprimere sia verbalmente, sia per iscritto o in altri modi, il funzionamento reale del pensiero, in assenza di ogni controllo esercitato dalla ragione, al di la di ogni preoccupazione estetica e morale" (Andre Breton)

Tracing the tracks of masterpieces such as "1984 " by George Orwell or "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, "Memento Postridie" shows us a possible future, so far away yet at the same time, so near. The incidents Andrea Rossi, an ordinary citizen living in the Milan of 2073, finds himself involved in, are an example of how much our love of progress can affect our everyday lives and the role the individual plays within society. Andrea is a product of the cultural environment he lives in, of a now globalised world in which happiness and well-being are everything, but Andrea is not completely convinced. Is this the kind of world man wants? Is this the real solution to all our problems? When Andrea starts asking himself these questions, he involuntarily brings up questions, which will lead him into a limbo where every answer seems useless and senseless.

Sulle orme di capolavori come 1984 di George Orwell o Il Mondo nuovo di Aldous Huxley, Memento Postridie ci mostra un probabile futuro così lontano e allo stesso tempo così vicino. Le vicende di Andrea Rossi, un cittadino normale nella Milano del 2073, sono un esempio di come il tanto amato progresso può avere effetti sulle nostre vite e sul ruolo dell''individuo all''interno della società. Andrea è un prodotto dell''ambiente culturale in cui vive, un mondo ormai globalizzato in cui tutto è felicità e benessere, però egli non sembra esserne convinto. E'' questo il mondo che l''uomo vuole? E'' questa la vera soluzione a tutti i nostri problemi? Quando Andrea comincia a porsi queste domane, apre involontariamente una questione che lo porterà a trovarsi in un limbo dove ogni risposta sembra inutile e senza senso.

63 carte collezionabili di Magic L''Adunanza© divise in nove gruppi di sette carte. Nove storie i cui personaggi sembrano simili alle fiabe tradizionali e allo stesso tempo appaiono diversi dalla nostra realtà letteraria. Nove storie generate e ispirate dalla stessa penna. Può una collezione di fiabe nascondere una forma e ordine pre-pianificata? A che punto le emozioni irrazionali della creatività umana diventano uno schema simmetrico ed intelligibile? La lettura de Il Castello dei Destini Incrociati (1973) di Italo Calvino é stata una mia prima introduzione alla letteratura combinatoria e all'' approccio strutturalistico nella letteratura. Questo libro é il mio primo tenativo a simularne la teoria ed é la mia prima raccolta di racconti brevi.

63 collectable cards from Magic The Gathering© split into nine groups of seven cards. Nine short stories in which characters resemble those from traditional fairy tales and at the same time are different from the literature known to us. Nine short stories created and inspired by the same writer. Could a collection of fairy tales hide a form or a pre-planned order? To what extent the irrational emotions of human creativity become a clear and symmetrical structure? The reading of The Castle of Crossed Destinies (1973) by Italo Calvino was my first introduction to combinatorial writing and its structured approach across literature. This book is my first attempt to put the theory in practice and it is my first collection of short stories.

When a note about the French writer Arthur De Gobineau lands on Daniel''s desk, he does not realise it will be the start of a long and perilous journey that will take him from Europe to the Middle East in search of the birthplace of human civilisation. With the help of his travelling companions, Daniel will have to fight a merciless enemy on the same search as his. A faceless enemy whose evil power could soon expand beyond every one''s imagination. "Arya" is an adventure story about history, science and maybe even religion. It is a story about the hidden power of an icon and how its meaning has influenced mankind for longer than you think.
