The war has begun for the Witch. Already for a while ', and the truth, but it must be said that a few days ago was really dealt a resounding blow of those that can change the tide of the war. Before tutto, però, occorre parlare di quali sono le forze schierate in campo.
Avevo detto in tempi non sospetti che Silvia Avallone sarebbe stata la rivelazione letteraria della primavera prossima ventura e che senza dubbio Rizzoli avrebbe puntato su di lei per copiare l ' effetto Giordano da Mondadori e abbassare ulteriormente il record di giovinezza sul palco della serata della finale. Non avevo fatto i conti - perchè ancora non la conoscevo - con la contromossa di Mondadori che ha investito in modo massiccio su Alessandro D' Avenia . Non ho ancora letto his 'white as milk, red as blood', but judging from what you read about, Segrate is a gamble worth trying Las Vegas : clear in the nymph of Villa Giulia a version of intellectual Moccia. If the book is good - and I can not judge yet - nothing wrong, what are 'The Long Life of Marianna Ucria ' and 'Do not Move' if not engaging melodrama? Cleared through customs as you do not see why should not have access to night Witch of the narrative also adolescent in the sense that tells teenagers but it is not written by adolescents, nor accessed only by them.
On this one day I'll have to open a debate, because during a meeting with the students of Liceo Umberto di Palermo a girl blurted out: "We are fed up with teenagers who tell their forties, but we will not even look like idiots a book like ' Tvukb '. " In fact, the Avallone has not even 25 years and the same Jordan when he wrote of Matthew and Alice was younger than her. But those who have recounted their stories are on adolescents rather than for teenagers and came set in eras and environments che più lontani da Moccia dai fighetti del triangolo Vigna Clara - Collina Fleming - Parioli non potrebbero essere. Ma questa è un'altra storia: quello che mi fa riflettere è lo sbarco massiccio di romanzi legati a una certa tematica in libreria, nelle classifiche e nel sancta sanctorum dal quale bisogna passare per essere riconosciti come letteratura italiana:
lo Strega. L'impressione che ho è che, vinta da Mondadori - e a mani basse - la partita di Giordano, altri cerchino di seguire quel solco, stando attenti a non precipitare nella banalità di fenomeni stagionali come l' innamoramento per il thriller scandinavo.
Intorno alla Avallone e a D' Avenia , cioè, si sta creando un fenomeno che ha poco di naturale: tentare di affermare un primato assoluto di una casa editrice o di un'altra nel trovare (o creare) un esordiente di talento che sia impareggiabile nel tratteggiare il mondo incomprensibile e sconosciuto degli adolescenti. Solo che non è semplice talent - scouting . E' una guerra. Tanto che una decina di giorni fa - per l'appunto - Rizzoli ha visto la Avallone scavalcata in classifica da D' Avenia e contemporaneamente è partita a trip by those able to sink a battleship. The Courier appeared an article Palermo disgraced writer as a vulgar profiteer a real human story and deeply dramatic. I am familiar with the author of that article and I know that there is a precise maneuver behind the editorial policy is not the type who would shoot up to D ' Avenia only because could give pleasure to the Rcs . But it is undoubtedly the product of a climate that is increasingly glowing even far away from the night of the witch. Mondadori has not yet announced the candidature of D ' Avenia But all in all a prize which is the high participation of schools and a book that is firmly placed in chart I do not see why it should not . The real question is another: it will do so in the author believes, because it has invested in the book or do another tripped at Rizzoli and Avallone launched at full speed toward the Nymph? What will be the outcome of this war, I want to see how involve further work with publishers of Avallone and D ' Avenia . Why novels like them so much that can not fail to be followed with argued as much energy from the publishers, unless the transformation of literature (fiction or should we say?) in consumer goods is already full and complete and 'book event' is not intended to definitively take the place of talent. It's over, that is, the ' era where publishers and raise their cherished authors to lead the onset of maturity and the dawn has arisen for an era of lightning in which debuts in the long run to be electrocuted are just talented authors from which the publisher gets out of bed stealthily as they become too old to be ancora degli enfant prodige .
