A Meaningful Event

A note of thanks to Aurelio Miccoli, who recently shared an image from an event in Castellaneta in which actor Lino Guanciale, receiving a Valentino-related honor, concluded the evening with a reading from Il Mio Diario Privato, excerpted from the opening passage describing a journey back to his roots.

It is always meaningful to see this material continue to find a voice and an audience, particularly in Italy, where so much of this history still resonates and where Renato Floris' work in translating and preserving the integrity of these texts remains part of that ongoing record. 

My thanks to Aurelio for passing this along.
