Lake time. E-book. Formato EPUB Daverio Philippe   -  Interlinea, 2019  -  Nativitas

«Il lago d’Orta, dove sorge l’isola di San Giulio, è un lago che fa di testa sua. Un originale che, invece di mandare le acque a sud, le manda a nord, come se le volesse regalare al monte Rosa» ha scritto Gianni Rodari. È un lago dallo spirito ribelle, diverso da tutti gli altri. Lo si scopre quasi di sorpresa, chiuso e protetto tra montagne boscose. Questo «angolo di paradiso» ha ispirato nel tempo poeti e scrittori, la creatività di artisti e le immagini di grandi fotografi contemporanei. Lake time lo racconta con le parole di un gruppo di autori che sul lago sono nati e vissuti o lo hanno scoperto per caso o lo pensano con nostalgia da lontano. È un quaderno di storie, pensieri, emozioni, ricordi personali che vi farà amare la magia di questo lago e vi farà venire il desiderio di conoscerlo. Postfazione di Anna Maria Cànopi.
