Smashwords book reviews by Federico Bini

    star star star star star
    Like a magical scene that lights up page after page, a long passionate declaration of love for the city of Savannah is revealed in this book by Guido Mattioni. Not only does it display an extraordinary gallery of characters, but also colors, smells and voices emerging from the wings to go on stage and say. "Listen, we have something to say. We want to tell you about our America that is far away from New York or California and explain our easy pace and past history. Come closer... you'll be amazed..." A cat and a slacker, a garden and a house, a statue or a pier, every entry has its own small or big story that deserves to be heard. As a skilled director, the Author urges them on stage and gives them their lines and ironic manner. The reader is invited to indulge in their history, lulled on by the air of the American South that drives him relentlessly towards a border that exists somewhere between reality and dream.
