Strong, empathetic and overwhelming, the youtuber Roberto Mercadini will be interviewed by Tiuna Notarbartolo and Antonio Parlati.

Overwhelming, pungent and engaging is the writer Roberto Mercadini the second guest who will be interviewed by the director of the Elsa Morante Award Tiuna Notarbartolo and the director of the Rai Production Center of Naples Antonio Parlati in the context of the Campania Libri Festival. Mercadini will present his latest book “La donna che laugh di Dio”, published just three months ago by Mondadori.

On October 5th at 15:XNUMX pm, at the Sala D'Ercole of the Royal Palace of Naples, the playwright, writer and youtuber from Cesena, in one of his rare episodes in Naples, will talk with Notarbartolo and Parlati about his particular work. It may seem incredible but in the Bible, when God chooses a person to entrust with a mission, it is almost always the most wrong person imaginable.

He orders an elderly and sterile couple to generate a people, he calls to himself a stammerer to become an orator and prophet, the most venerable figures of the Old Testament, such as Abraham, Moses, David and Solomon, are in reality marked by a multitude of sins, destined to cover themselves with ridicule.

God himself, more often than not, proves unreliable: he says one thing and then does another. What is the meaning of all this? Mercadini tells us, as only he can, guiding us through the fiery pages of Scripture and inviting us to reflect on the lesson hidden in each verse: if you find yourself facing an undertaking for which you feel unprepared, inadequate, or too small, do not despair. No one, no matter how convinced they may be, can truly know God's will.

The organization of Morante, led by Tiuna Notarbartolo, avails itself of the coordination of Iki Notarbartolo, of the beautiful graphic images of Umberto Amicucci and of the Pem press office, with Lisa Terranova and Gilda Notarbartolo, Raimondo Miele for Institutional Relations.

Partners of these days, in which the synergy between the Elsa Morante Award, the Campania dei Festival Foundation and the Campania Region is a winning one, are the Rai of Naples, in the year of its sixtieth anniversary, the Grand Hotel Oriente, a true refuge for stars, the Al 53 restaurant, which tells the story of Naples through culinary art, and Giannini Editore.

All events are free to attend.
