A boat in the woods
Gaspare Torrente, son of a fisherman and aspiring Latinist, lands in Turin from a small island in southern Italy. He is thirteen years old, translating Horace and reading Verlaine. He is out of fashion, out of time, out of place: a fish out of his water, a boat in a forest. A classic by Paola Mastrocola returns to bookstores, now in the paperback edition of Guanda's new Le Bussole collection.
