Frankenstein – If You Love Solitude, You Don’t Love Freedom, by OHT – Office for a Human Theatre, published by bruno

OHT closes the project on Frankenstein with a publication that brings together Filippo Andreatta’s research and travels as he retraces the creature’s favorite places and locations. A book that presents itself as a monstrous object: grafted between the pages of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley appear the stage forms and materials produced by OHT’s encounter with the novel. They are flaps, fragments, scraps of works whose life takes place elsewhere and which her

Almanac of forgotten memories, by Federico Possati, published by Leporello books and Skinnerboox

Federico Possati’s book was born out of a necessity to give meaning and weight to an ever-growing pile of images, an obsessive catalog of small treasures found in everyday life. Using the structure of an uncommon diary, images, and text come together creating a narrative that continues throughout its 365(-ish) pages. Like a diary, the book is divided into 12 chapters, but unlike a classical diary, each chapter recalls a month taken fr

Nicola Moscelli, Dead End, published by Penisola edizioni

Dead End is a visual investigation that intersects the past and present of the border between the United States and Mexico developed by Nicola Moscelli during the three years of the pandemic. The leitmotif of the dead end, both physical and metaphorical, transcends the geographical boundary and weaves through the entire narrative, urging the reader to delve into the complex, innervated fabric of events and issues that the borderlands have witnessed since their inception.

Anna Luna Astolfi, Il Matto è il Mondo – Tarot

How better to celebrate Epiphany together than with a presentation of the Tarot of our Luna? The Tarot is an art that does not allow itself to be imprisoned by any kind of rigidity: the Arcana that compose them are a mirror and not a truth in themselves. They are chameleons, transforming themselves to adapt to the observer. If we seem to see our own life in them, it is because th

The Lines We Draw, with Lavinia Parlamenti e Manfredi Pantanella, selfpublished

We end the series of presentations hosted by Leporello in 2024 on a high note with a book we have been waiting for for a long time, self-published by the brilliant duo Lavinia Parlamenti + Manfredi Pantanella and designed by Ania Nalecka-Milach. In this publication, which starts from the observation of the paradoxical situation in which a series of self-proclaimed independent territories find themselves, the different geographical contexts and their identity acts are not kept s

Thinking like an Island, with Camilla Marrese and Gabriele Chiapparini, published by Overlapse

We will finally have Camilla and Gabriel in the bookstore to present this book that we fell in love with at first sight! The Island is distant in the Mediterranean sea, and 675 metres in height. It’s inhabited by an uncertain number of 30 to 60 people, year-round, with no hospital, no cars, no priests or police. Some islanders never consider leaving while others tried, only to return to their lives in the remote bubble
