Martini Maria Cristina | MMC Edizioni
MMC EDIZIONI is a publishing house based in Rome.Born in 2001 as a generalist, along the time it has specialized almost exclusively in non-fiction, dedicated in particular (but not only) to the city of Rome.The main series, called "A walk with history" offers an alternative vision of the city through the historical reconnaissance and analysis of some of its urban furnishings that are not taken into consideration such as small fountains, clocks, inscriptions, sacred shrines, plaques. This series stands out for a particular graphic style and for the abundance of photographs, specially made for these books.Other series on Rome are instead dedicated to in-depth studies on specific historical and customs themes, or on the mysterious aspects of the city that also reveal its dark side.In the MMC catalogue are other non-fiction books on topics such as Music, Interculture, Anthropology and a series of stories for children encouraging solidarity, non-violence and respect for the environment

September 2022The Girl's Room
An Existential Horror Comedy
by Marjun Syderbø Kjelnæs
The Girl’s room is an existential horror comedy play which takes place in a girls' bedroom during 24 hours and has a limited line-up of actors. The focus is on psychological relations, and with black humour Marjun portrays how the past and present, in an irrational combination, influence the self-image and behaviour of the main character. A literary double work together with The Karma Goat, each with its own expression and character in two different genres. The works can be read in any order, and are not linearly or causally linked, but form rather two interlocking works, in which the dialogues of the drama, the movements of the poems, the states of mind and the physical spaces grow into each other.

September 2022The Karma Goat
Nordic Council Literature Prize 2023 Nominee
by Marjun Syderbø Kjelnæs
Poems that circle around the themes of psychological relations and the past and present. Filled with humour, irony and gravity. The main voice is female and the lyrical style detaches it from the time and place limits and transfers it into a personal story, a family story and a universal story. A literary double work together with The Girl's Room, each with its own expression and character in two different genres. The works can be read in any order, and are not linearly or causally linked, but form rather two interlocking works, in which the dialogues of the drama, the movements of the poems, the states of mind and the physical spaces grow into each other.
