Sobre IBD

One town, squashed between some marble mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. Four main characters with their own unique relationship to it, often embellished or distorted by nostalgia’s trickery. Each of them with a different short story to tell... ... or are they more connected than they believe?Giada Nizzoli is the author of the poetry collection ’Will-o’-the-Wisps’. With these short stories, she will take you to one of her Italian hometowns, adding a sprinkle of magic to your journey. Or, perhaps, helping you see the magic that’s already hiding there.[This short story collection also includes the bonus essay ’Foreign Home Countries: The Strong Relationship Between Magical Realism and Exilic Nostalgia’]
