Details: Product description The protagonist of the new novel by Guido Mina di Sospiro is the river Po, which tells its story in the first person starting from the depths of geological eras. It is a story full of characters: the gnomes of Nordic mythology and the gods of the classical one; the nymph Salmacide, who weaves a love story with the river and then with men, and historical figures such as Attila, Leonardo, Botticelli in love with Spring, up to Napoleon and Hitler; the animals, such as eels and sturgeons, which inhabit the waters of the Po. But this enchanted universe is contaminated and destroyed by man and by technological progress that ignores the ancient laws of Nature.
