Article Key Points
The book
“La casa del Mago” tells the story of Mario Trevi, a renowned Italian psychoanalyst, through the memory of his son, Emanuele Trevi. Described as a place of healing and confrontation with Evil, the house becomes the starting point for a narrative that intertwines past and present, bringing together illustrious figures such as Carl Gustav Jung, Natalia Ginzburg, and others. This novel closes a circle that began seven years ago with “Invasioni Controllati”, and stands out for its personal character and irony.

The Salerno event seems interesting, but I don't know if I'll go. I've read about Emanuele Trevi and his works, but I've never read 'La casa del Mago'. I hope it's a good book.
