Two hundred and one miniature tales
Two hundred and one miniature tales
‘Two hundred and one miniature tales’ is a book aimed to regain a form of narrative which in our time emerges as a cultural synthesis, that brings us closer to the ways our most ancient ancestors used to tell the facts of the physical and psychic world around them. In their rich, plethoric variety, the stories appear to resemble the multicolor bits of glass of a very personal creative kaleidoscope in whose mirrors the author wants to reflect the world in all its mystery, its sublimity, its tragedy and its beauty.
