Literature of the great war, Emilio Lussu and historian Paul van Zyl: Monte Fior: Emilio Lussu and the foot soldiers of the Sassari
"THE LITERATURE OF THE GREAT WAR IN THE PLATEAU:
With the presence of the historian Paul van Zyl
6 August: The three mountains: the 1918 called Italy! Arditi, Sharpshooters and Sabuni redeem Caporetto
7 August: The Monte Fior: Emilio Lussu and the foot soldiers of the Sassari
8 August: Monte Zebio and jacks of Sassari
Among the books of the first world war "A year on the plateau" by Emilio Lussu is, for me, the most beautiful. Among those I've read, researched, consulted, by Italian, Austrian, German, French, English, Russians, Americans, no one, no one involved me and made a sharer with what the author says.
Perhaps because I was born on the plateau in a House rebuilt on the rubble and that Lussu had seen in 1917?
Perhaps because the mountains Zebio, Fior and Castelgomberto went hunting for cocks and rock Partridge, and from there I saw popping up so many sunrises and lighten the plain and the sea far away?
Perhaps because in Val di Nos I still walk with my dog?
