Inventario di quel che resta dopo che la foresta brucia

In the story of Mother and Father, time is shaped by facts: before and after. The births of First Born and Last Born. The accident that involves them all. But also, those marginal events that change the course of their existence, and of ours too: a touch that lingers, a glimpse of someone else’s chat. In this luminous and sharp debut, Michele Ruol leads us through his characters’ most intimate lives: it is the imprints they left on the objects touched in their own houses that make us question what we think of them – and of ourselves too.
