main intention is to reconnect young people to literature, including the recovery of oral tradition. the oral history has the speed as the main feature: the events, regardless of their maturity, they become point, connected by straight line segments in a zigzag pattern that corresponds to a non-stop movement. In any case, the story is on how long an operation, a spell that affects the passage of time ;[...] neglects the details, but insists on repetition. [...] The childish pleasure of hearing stories is also waiting for this that is repeated.
(Italo Calvino "American Lessons")
