Debut of «La Boule letteraria»
Date of the event:
On Sunday 8 November 2026, the series «La Boule letteraria» debuts in Barriera di Milano, a district of Turin: a new format of talks with authors and figures from the cultural world, held at the Sala Concerti on Via Courmayeur 16, home of La Boule, the space run by Estemporanea – Arte, Musica, Teatro. The series is added to the association's 2026/27 music season, titled Microstorie.[1]
The first talk
At 6 pm, Gianlivio Fasciano presents the novel «Mi chiamo ruggine» (Castelvecchi Editore), winner of the Premio Selezione Bancarella 2026 and a finalist for the Premio Bancarella. The book tells the story of a young Sicilian man who cuts ties with his past, changes his name and enlists in the Foreign Legion, going through a path marked by training, violence and solitude, in which the search for redemption intertwines with a confrontation with his own identity.[1]
The talk with the author is accompanied by Sara Musso on piano, in keeping with the multidisciplinary approach of the Microstorie season, which combines literature, music and theatre.[1]
The following events
After the talk with Gianlivio Fasciano, the series includes three further events: Pino Ippolito Arminio on 31 January, Marco Cappato on 21 February and Monica Savaresi on 21 March.[1]
