Stop it with those bongos, we’re not in Africa,
you wear your hair long, but you need to practice.

It's not the educated ones who call them cassette tapes, kid... It's the old folks.
That said, the review does have a few typos and smudges here and there. But apart from that, I found it very enjoyable. Thank you.

"The truth is that I no longer have the patience to watch movies." For better or for worse, I never had it. But I must say, diobbuono, that the plot and your review are enticing. Indeed.

A magnificent story, in its own right.
And beautifully told.
Debaser is beautiful for this.
Find it elsewhere, a thing told like this.

I have long wished for the advent of exportable reviews on Twitter, in 140 characters. Finally, that day has come.

Edit to the review: "You've convinced me. I've removed the entire introduction." See the old version Quartetto n. 15, Op. 144 - Dmitri Shostakovich - recensione Versione 2

"To review," philologically speaking, means to restore something to its exact lesson. I find that this is precisely what you have done.

Amendment to the review: "Because 'l'accapo' still makes sense in this world." See the old version Paolo Conte - Paolo Conte - recensione Versione 1

Perfect review that, unfortunately, I only discover now.

I'm referring to "If on a winter's night a traveler," of course. One of the most fitting openings in the history of Italian literature, in my opinion. I had fun adapting it to Debaser.
As for Céline, all the other italics in the text are his. Primarily, the explicit of "Journey to the End of the Night," which I also chose to conclude this little page of mine.
I answer your last question: yes, it's all true. From what biographers say, he happened to sleep on the landing, often traveled with a suitcase containing the essentials, and wrote at least part of his last quartet in a hospital, where he was hospitalized for some time.
The rest is mine. I enjoyed imagining this man - and deliberately, in the text, the expression "this man" recurs - writing those notes on Death in a place where lady with the scythe is often just a step away.
Thank you truly for your words and, above all, for having listened to it. "And if not everything, at least the beginning," as Battisti sang.
