The volume allows us to reconstruct, in a precise historical-geographical context (that of Sardinia in the Thirties and Forties, of the Pisa of the Scuola Normale, of the Ferrara of the first post-war period) the formation of a personality and its move towards writing. Around the figure of Giuseppe Dessí, one of the most refined and secluded narrators of our second half of the twentieth century, those of his father, brother, companions and friends stand out. A world to be discovered in the complexity of relationships, thanks to the more than 1400 letters preserved in the Contemporary Archive of the Gabinetto Vieusseux in Florence, whose cataloging and a wide range of contents are offered here.
