An evening of literature and mystery
On Tuesday, Feb. 24, the museum hosted a special evening of noir and suggestions of Sardinia’s identity.
Protagonist of the meeting was Piergiorgio Pulixi, who presented his new novel The Crow’s Nest (Feltrinelli), dialoguing with Giuditta Sireus.
An attentive and participatory audience accompanied the author on a narrative journey through suspended landscapes, mysteries and psychological tensions, in the heart of an intense and restless Sardinia.
