Mauro Corona. Vajont, quelli del dopo
Mauro Corona was born in Erto in 1950, a clever head gruff(not sure what you mean to say-clever, but gruff man), a sculptor and a man who tells the truth! Corona has written a book, among others, which title titled is Vajont, quelli del dopo. An interesting piéce de théâtre. He has invented (He is inventive) but not fantasized(but doesn't write fantasy) . In this book does he mentions two realities: those who lived before and during the Vajont day and that day he lost everything: home, work, family ... even underwear; and those who arrived after the Vajont Day: to help or to make money? who knows? He lets them speak without judging. They judge each other in the dialogue , in the play, that unfortunately I hadn't see being represented , but does someone represented it? (The book begins with these words:
"Alle porte dell'autunno ua notte di tragedia era calata sulle case del paese addormentato dalle fatiche e tra le vie dove per secoli aveva pulsato il cuore della vecchia Erto. Fu come un colpo di falce. Il 9 ottobre 1963 alle 22.45 duemila persone entravano nel nulla per ambizione e interessi altrui." [...]
These opening words not only describe a tragedy that for many it is better to forget and one that we are ashamed of. It shows what Erto is today. Erto, a place destroyed in a few minutes, a whcih was place in the middle of Dolomities and destroyed from by an enosmpous enormous wave (250mt tall). Erto: The memory of a country that no longer exists?, With people who do not live there anymore? ,with ghosts and dust? . Or is it a country renewed by new people, by the reconstruction of a catastrophe, that is becoming a thing and now being revived with new people? (not sure what you mean here).
9.10.1963 it really happened and there still someone who can tell us the truth!
