Arcadia Lecce Wolf and publisher present the latest work by Alfredo Annicchiarico entitled "Rate of deception" that will be introduced by Stefano Donno and Luciano Pagano, Friday, March 11 at 19.30 in Via Mazzini Cibus Lamarmora 4 to Lecce.
In the late nineteenth century the life of Newport (Wales) revolves around the ironworks of Stanton, an ancient noble family that has invested the proceeds of the campaigns in the nascent industry; dell'Usk the estuary, the profondo fiume sulla cui riva sorge la cittadina, è solcato dalle grandi navi da carico che nel porto sovrastano i pescherecci.
Qui il giovane lord Stanton, deluso dalla politica, coltiva l’ambizioso progetto di un avveniristico ponte trasportatore capace di rivoluzionare l’esistenza della popolazione ma soprattutto di realizzare un romantico desiderio del vecchio padre; e mentre in questa “follia” George trova un degno partner in Clarence Hewitt, nei cuori e nelle menti di chi gli vive accanto si dipanano altre ambizioni ed altri sogni, si mischiano certezze e fragilità, valori millenari e tentazioni sofferte.
Il piccolo Abel che si nutre di scrittura, Andrew il cacciatore di venti, Mary Anne thirsty for liberation, Anatol and Rufus, Ruth exhausted by an impossible love, and Aaron, who returns home suddenly after years at sea ... all - consciously or unconsciously - pursue their dreams and at times testing their defeat. If it is true, as he explains to his son Jeremiah, that the horizon line was pulled straight "man to understand that the ocean boundaries are rigid, precise, and those of life," nothing will still be equal to first, because the strength of the dream lies in the inner change that triggers it to bear fruit later.
divided into four "movements", this short, intense novel then tells of dreams and dreamers who lived in an era when the idea of \u200b\u200bprogress seemed clear.
The great adventure of the bridge will prove to be too ahead of the times, but its characters are emblematic of those who, while giving impetus visionary, I do not deny to feel alive, waiting.
