Chissà cosa ne penserebbe adesso. Forse è meglio così, che non lo veda.
Fernanda Pivano
Viaggio americano
Bompiani
Ebook
********************************************************************************
A journey at 400° in the American culture. They are all here, Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Alien Ginsbgerg, Kerouac, Joyce Carol Oates, Nelson Algren, Anais Nin, Erica Jong, Henry Miller. And then a lot of musicians, as Bob Dylan, Patti Smith, Kurt Cobain. Pieces about Beat Generation, Yuppies, Grunge.
There is everything. But most of all there is all that love Fernanda Pivano had for that country. It shows through every page, every chapter. By any single detail told, her hugs with mythical writers, the kiss on the hand that one of the most irreverent writers in the world has made to greet her. It would be impossible to report everything in this review. But I report what this reading has left to me: the image of a woman who deeply loved her life and the United States.
Who knows what she's think about the present situation. Maybe it's better she doesn't know.
