        by Meri Jo

        A fun trip on Rome’s means of transport that brings a good mood, flavored by the attitudes and habits of the Romans who have to interact with unsuspecting tourists. Meri Jo, with the pleasure of her spontaneity, has given shape to her personal and shareable flow of thought that can be found in the everyday life of those who take the public transport of the city. A different way to live and laugh about the sometimes unthinkable dynamics that characterize commuters and tourists; in particular on the "Metro A” of Rome. ---  Un viaggio divertente sui mezzi di trasporto di Roma che coinvolge e mette di buon umore, condito dagli atteggiamenti e dalle abitudini dei romani che si interfacciano con gli ignari turisti. Non a caso la metropolitana della capitale è da sempre al centro dell'opinione pubblica per la sua "alternativa" efficienza (chiamiamola così!).Meri Jo, con il piacere della spontaneità ha dato forma a un suo personale quanto condivisibile flusso di pensiero che lo si potrà riscontrare nella quotidianità di chi prende i mezzi pubblici.Un modo diverso per vivere e ridere sulle dinamiche talvolta impensabili che caratterizzano le persone che viaggiano in particolare sulla metro A di Roma (suo abituale tragitto), sensazioni e impressioni nate da pensieri e riflessioni generate da simpatiche scenette che l'autrice ha realmente riportato sui memo durante i suoi quotidiani e avventurosi spostamenti nella città. Tali post-it sono divenuti libro, riportando avvenimenti unici anche al limite dell'assurdo, accompagnati dai corsi e ricorsi a cui i viaggiatori possono (comodamente?) assistere in qualità di pubblico, alla prima di quel fantastico spettacolo trasmesso dalla Atac Company & Production.

        THE MOST BEAUTIFUL STRANGER LIGHT

        by VLADIMIR P. ŠTEFANEC

        THE MOST BEAUTIFUL STRANGER LIGHT (Najlepša neznanka svetloba) The novel’s starting point is six portraits on the desk of the main character. These photographs show the people closest to him, with whom his life to date, its determinants, longings, regrets, captivity, the possibility of liberation, has been connected. Through fragments of memory, their stories are woven into a common story about their past, torn between the seemingly carefree life in the late nineteenth century until the 1920s, when the looming shadows of world events reached Slovenia. In this novel about liberation achieved through the clearing of an individual’s past and his family’s, about everyday melancholy and the melancholy of everyday life, which nevertheless includes some of what makes life exciting and precious, the main character keeps wondering what distance to choose for the best photographic result, as well as how close to let someone come without letting them penetrate his isolation.
