The famous American author Elizabeth Strout brings together the two protagonists of her narrative universe, Lucy Barton and Olive Kitteridge, in her new novel Raccontami tutto. In the setting of the small town of Crosby, the meeting between these two very different women initiates a mutual exchange of stories and tales in a modern-day version of One Thousand and One Nights.
Elizabeth Strout will be in conversation with the writer Gaia Manzini.
As part of the review Le Voci dei Libri, in collaboration with Coop Alleanza 3.0
