"I write these lines on the pages of someone else"s magazine, by candle, in the womb of giant fish. I was swallowed. "
A long ago, a lonely carpenter from a small town in Tuscany cut a mario doll from a pine log. Thus begins the story worldwide about the adventures of a wooden boy.
"swallowed" is a new look at the old fairy tale, but this time - the eyes of Giuseppe, the father, who went in search of a wayward wooden offspring and for several years, hit giant fish into the stomach. There, bewitched by a feeling of guilt, he indulges in thoughts about paternity, mistakes and loss, waiting for the day when he can reunite with his son, whom he himself at one time pushed away.
This is a real diary of Giuseppe, the creator of the naughty Pinocchio, which he wrote, sitting inside the giant fish. Insanely and touching ". - Margaret Etwood
"sincere and bizarre thought about what it means to be a son, father and artist." - Kirkus Reviews
