Renowned as a novelist, journalist, and humorist, Mark Twain is not only one of the most widely read and admired American writers, he is also among the most quoted. Wit and repartee permeate his work — from the short, light pieces to his great novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and even later, in dark meditations on the human condition where his humor takes on a cynical, satirical twist.

Come si fa oggi a stare nel mondo? In questo mondo. A trovare un modo, un posto adatto a noi che siamo consapevoli di essere privilegiati ma dobbiamo fare i conti anche coi nostri, di traumi, piccoli o grandi, oltre che con quelli giganteschi di chi è sotto le bombe, di chi è oppresso, povero, svantaggiato. Ci si vergogna a dire che ci si sente soli, ma lo siamo sempre di più. Daria Bignardi lo dice con sincerità, ironia, coraggio. Sente che la solitudine può essere una prigione ma anche un posto da cui ascoltare il battito del cuore del mondo. Il mondo la chiama e lei parte.
