Publisher's summary

È il 1946 quando Amerigo lascia il suo rione di Napoli e sale su un treno. Assieme a migliaia di altri bambini meridionali attraverserà l'intera penisola e trascorrerà alcuni mesi in una famiglia del Nord; un'iniziativa del Partito comunista per strappare i piccoli alla miseria dopo l'ultimo conflitto.

Con lo stupore dei suoi sette anni e il piglio furbo di un bambino dei vicoli, Amerigo ci mostra un'Italia che si rialza dalla guerra come se la vedessimo per la prima volta. E ci affida la storia commovente di una separazione. Quel dolore originario cui non ci si può sottrarre, perché non c'è altro modo per crescere.

Bella comme il cuore!!!

Me encantó. Es como ver una película del mejor cine italiano. Si conoces la cultura italiana no hay manera de que no te atrape y te conmueva. Lo amé.

La speranza non è innata ma imparata

Poignant reflection on our relationship to our past and the people, places and events that we may either embrace or reject, but whose meaning we will always grapple with as we age and evolve.

A Fantastic Story

The stori was great and the reader's performance too. I loved it! It was the first book that I read from Viola Ardone but I think I will read more from her.

Decent story but was never fully hooked

Well written and narrated story, but I never found myself deeply connected to the protagonist and his plight.
