Reviews
"one can only see with the heart, the essential is invisible to the eyes" De Saint Exupery.
A search for paradise lost, or perhaps for the golden age, or perhaps just for the knowledge of other worlds that we had and which has been lost, but which no force can influence, not even death.
Bruna Dal Lago Veneri
Writer, anthropologist.
This book is the result of a historical reconstruction, field research, exploration; Margherita Detomas is one of the last followers of the race of journalists-travelers-explorers.
