BOOK "THE ANGEL OF THE GRAPPA"
Angelo is a teenager like many: he loves music and video games, he has a passion for street art and, above all, he loathes school. Summer would like to spend her in the city, with friends, but her parents have other plans: a holiday on Mount Grappa, in a remote cabin with no Internet connection. Up there time flows with placid slowness and meeting a peer is almost impossible; Among the peaks are only the roe deer and the Malgari vecis that collect world war i memorabilia. Angel gets bored, snorts, protests. He still does not know that the mountain follows mysterious paths, and has chosen him as the guardian of his secrets. So, during a walk, he comes across a diary that belonged to a soldier in 1918: his name was Antonio, he was nineteen years old, they had sent him on the Grappa from deep Sardinia. He was a boy too, but he had a rifle on his shoulder and a lot of fear in his heart. Angelo begins to read and feels that part of those pages is hidden out there, between the trenches, the rocks and the thick of the woods. You want to put yourself on Antonio's trail, piece together the pieces of his life But where to start? Thanks to the guidance of a young researcher he will learn to listen to the voice of the mountain and discover that History, far from the benches and questions, can turn into the most extraordinary of adventures.
