Nel nosocomio
Italian · Paperback / Softback
Description
Allegoria svelatamente scoperta dell'Italia contemporanea, Nel nosocomio restituisce, non troppo metabolizzata, l'allucinazione kafkiana di un Paese per vecchi, la protervia disgustosa della volgarità e dell'ignoranza al potere, dove l'amore per la bellezza è svanito nei vapori goduriosi di quei centri di wellness teledipendenti che hanno sostituito ogni forma civile di aggregazione sociale, dove l'eterna giovinezza apparente del vecchiume imperante uccide ogni giorno i giovani, con lo scippo e lo stillicidio del loro e nostro non futuro. "Nel nosocomio" è una tragedia classica negata, mira dritto ad una catarsi impossibile, ogni suo pezzetto è un gesto verbale apotropaico contro un orrore privo di ogni sia pur minimo fascino konradiano, l'orrore della vita affogata nel trash, parodia del kafkismo novecentesco decaduto a ridicolo. Nella terza parte, "Dal dormitorio", si alzano sparute voci di strazio, l'esaltazione disperata che tenta un parziale riscatto nelle repliche di una antologia di Spoon River glocalizzata e alla portata di una audience da successi pop. "Nel nosocomio" è il frutto atroce del lutto, del lutto per tutto, e anche del rutto per tutto.
