A journey through the houses, objects and life of Grazia Deledda, Marguerite Yourcenar, Colette, Alexandra David-Néel, Karen Blixen and Virginia Woolf. Sandra Petrignani listens to "the voice of things" and translates them into the fascinating stories in this book. This book by Sandra Petrignani is a very long journey to museum houses that, through furniture and objects, rooms and gardens, tell the story of the most significant writers of the 20th century. Sandra Petrignani looks for them in her diaries, in the armchair where they sat, in the amulet they never parted with, but also, in some cases, in the people who still have a living memory of them. In this way, the trip is a tour of the world where at each stage it is as if the protagonists in person opened the door and quietly revealed to us the secrets of their married life, their disturbing passions and the weaknesses that made them great writers. , but also in tremendously vulnerable people.
