Rogiosi Editore presents “Capri e la luce blu” at Gran Caffè Gambrinus. Wednesday, November 23, at 18.00:XNUMX p.m.
On Wednesday, November 23, at 18.00:1 p.m., the tea room of Gran Caffè Gambrinus, in via Chiaia XNUMX, will host the presentation of “Capri e la luce blu”, a precious work published by Rogiosi editore and written by Stefanie Sonnentag, which offers the reader an unpublished and extraordinary guide to the discovery of the most beloved island in the world. The director of the Goethe-Institut of Naples Maria Carmen Morese will be in conversation with the author.
The book, written in Italian and translated into English by Kenneth White, is enriched by many photographs showing panoramas, villas immortalized from the outside and from the inside with elegant and sumptuous rooms and characteristic streets of the blue island.
For each place shown, the stories of the space and of the historical figures are told, the great emperors who built that place and also the stories of the great exponents of international culture who lived there and who composed poems, wrote books, and created works of art.
Painstaking research, the consultation of many literary sources and private collections, and visits to institutes, libraries, archives, and foundations make “Capri and its blue light” a fascinating editorial work that reveals the great magic of one of the most sought-after travel destinations.
