THE BOOK "LA PERLA DEL BRENTA - LA LEGGENDA DI SOFIA E IL CAMPIONE"
A rampant journalist in search of a new editorial scoop and a rich hidden treasure, traces back in time the events of a man who went through two wars on a bicycle, precisely because of that treasure.
The bicycle proves to be the co-protagonist of a life-long journey: it accompanies the passion for cycling, fatigue and dust, leads to the experience of descent and ascent of a nation that faces two devastating conflicts and laboriously recovers, meets people whose lives change their lives but not dreams and ideals, he transforms chance into Fortune, and while guarding that legendary treasure, he becomes an instrument of fidelity and testimony of Love for the land of Home.
