BOOK "List of anti-fascist political prisoners of the judicial prisons of San Biagio di Vicenza (8 September 1943-26 April 1945)" - Cierre Edizioni
The idea of this book was born in 2012, when the author had the opportunity to view a "unique and unpublished" register, which remained closed and hidden in a wooden box for over 67 years.
This "discovery" ignites the desire to tell an important and little-known aspect of the Vicenza Resistance: that of political imprisonment. A theme that closely unites the war and military events with the tragic reality of arrests, imprisonments, tortures, sometimes so cruel as to be a cause of death.
This work is the thin thread that binds the common history and the human events of thousands of people, artisans and non-artisans, who have known and suffered the brutality of imprisonment, physical suffering and the anguish that it has caused. A page of tragic and painful history deliberately forgotten.
