I read the receipt well after I saw it.

The Lawrence is a lot to take in.

Beautiful page. Perhaps too much of a summary of the various episodes, but still a nice read that adds something to already well-known episodes (for those who know them).

"it's not a Battiato album sung by Milva" -> I disagree; it is literally a Battiato album sung by Milva! It's a nice album, mind you, but here too she sings a bit too "Battiato" in too many songs and I think it suffers because of it. Better, from this point of view, Giuni Russo with "Energie".

This book is beautiful; I read it a long time ago, but I really want to read it again. For years, I thought it was the Italian Infinite Jest (for creative writing and its truncated narrative structure)... then I realized that was nonsense! At most, it's the exact opposite XD but no... in the end, Gadda outshines the good old F. Wallace (whom I adore/have adored for a long time but also, I should reread him).

You've forgotten to mention some pretty juicy things about him, like his fierce misogyny...

Album you're talking about is summed up with a bang. Obviously: beautiful.
Horrible cover that couldn't be worse, but... that line of the horizon that they didn't even take the time to align properly every time I look at it drives me crazy.

I only know well the soundtrack of Sweden Inferno Paradise (by the way, I’ve never even seen the movie :O) and I really like it.
Great character; a nostalgic joy for those who lived in a booming era and not in depression...

I liked it just as I liked his early graphic novels (even if I don't think I'm following him anymore). The story being told in this case, however, is my least favorite; perhaps because I have similar experiences (which, God willing, had a different ending), sometimes I don't really appreciate it when there's some whining/irony about certain topics. But still, it's always nice, come on.

I don't know whose fake you are, but this one turned out well; you could have posted it with a less anti-boomer account.
Of course, I will never listen to the proposal though.

De Andrè + De Gregori -> Bad
De Andrè + Brassens -> Very Good

But how many does he churn out...
Apart from the first one, what do you recommend to listen to?
