La capitale del bookcrossing

20160528_111916
Monte Grimano Terme è un paesello della provincia di Pesaro-Urbino che ha avuto l’ottima idea di predisporre delle postazioni permanenti di bookcrossing. Tanto più che all’entrata del paese sotto il cartello toponomastico c’è anche quello che qualifica la località come “paese del bookcrossing”.
 Il bookcrossing, fenomeno sociologico di portata globale, è un modo originale per far circolare i libri e stimolare alla lettura, e il piccolo centro marchigiano ha pensato bene di proporsi come città-simbolo di questa pratica.

In paese esiste una apposita segnaletica che indica la “torre dei libri”, e la “terrazza della lettura” . La torre è un campanile all’interno del quale si trovano i libri su tavoli e scaffali appositi. La “terrazza della lettura” è all’aperto in un parco pubblico dove ci sono tavolini e sedie dipinti con un piacevolissimo color fucsia; in quest’area esiste anche uno scaffale all’aperto opportunamente protetto dalle intemperie (ce ne sono altri in giro per il paese).

I libri sono ufficialmente registrati sul sito del bookcrossing con l’apposita etichetta e riportano anche un timbro di Monte Grimano.

Con un’organizzazione come questa Monte Grimano Terme diventerà certamente la capitale del bookcrossing, magari non solo italiana!

Reflexions on the Future of Contemporary Poetry

Can the Muse Sing Again? Poetry, as is well known, has now been the Cinderella of literature for several decades. The art of verse is essentially alien to the mindset of the contemporary reader, and poetry books have a completely negligible impact on the book market. Apparently, therefore, poetry seems confined to a narrow circle of insiders, or to a crowd of reckless amateurs who believe they are poets simply because they occasionally break lines when they write… But there are also those who wonder whether alternative horizons might exist for what was once the queen of literary expression. Among the voices proposing new ways of approaching the public, Ivan Pozzoni stands out for his originality. He has drafted an “Anti-Manifesto” of the “Neon-avant-garde” that offers plenty of stimuli for those who aspire to speak to the audience through renewed expressive modes. The key points of Pozzoni’s Manifesto are the following: – challenging nomadic capitalisms and multinational authorities...

The Two Faces of Tolstoy

  Tolstoy: The Genius of War and Peace and the Moralist "Mess" Post- Anna Karenina ___________________________________ Leo Tolstoy is a writer whose greatness needs no introduction. The human condition is painted with extraordinary depth and power in War and Peace (1867). Contrary to what our contemporary image of Tolstoy might suggest, War and Peace is not a pacifist manifesto at all. The idle Russian bourgeoisie, immersed in balls, philosophical discussions, and socialites, is incapable of perceiving the gravity of the Napoleonic invasion; only the defeat and the horror of Austerlitz awaken the protagonists' humanity, allowing them to understand the meaning of existence (both individual and collective) in a Russia threatened by destruction. It is in this confrontation with necessity that Tolstoy is a genius: Napoleon is not an imaginary tyrant, but a man of flesh and blood; Russia is not a mere stage, it is life, it is the motherland. War is not a game, it i...

Anonymous of the Tower: A Global Enigma

  Throughout 2025, a singular cultural phenomenon began to manifest. In various corners of the globe, self-published, staple-bound booklets appeared, bearing the title Exposition of the Signs of the Times and signed under the mysterious pseudonym Anonymous of the Tower . This phenomenon persisted into early 2026, and every indication suggests it is something destined to endure. These brochures have been discovered primarily in libraries, universities, and public spaces hosting cultural events. The booklet contains poems structured in rhyming couplets, possessing a prophetic and apocalyptic flavor , as hinted by the evangelical resonance of the title. The fact that these pamphlets have surfaced in disparate locations suggests an organized group disseminating a message that readers are invited to decipher. The cover depicts the Tower of Babel , a choice that naturally invites conspiracy theories. Expressions such as "Brothers of the three points" further fuel speculati...
