Giangiacomo Schiavi, Gigi Rizzi

Writer

Author of Ho ammazzato Gigi Rizzi; praised for a succinct, intense style that captures the excesses and nostalgia of a generation.

The review notes the first edition (published by Rizzoli) is practically unobtainable and that the book was reprinted with modifications in 2003 as Io, BB e l'altro '68 by Carte Scoperte.

A warmly positive review that presents Ho ammazzato Gigi Rizzi as an intense, succinct memoir/biography evoking the spirit of 1968 and high-life Saint Tropez. The writing is praised for its joie de vivre, melancholy and evocative portrait of a generation. The edition history (Rizzoli first edition; reprint as Io, BB e l'altro '68) is noted.

For:Readers of memoirs and biographies, those interested in 1968 cultural history and Italian literature.

 An intriguing journey through an Italy that is very different from the one we are usually told about when discussing '68: you devour the pages of this book that honestly and unashamedly tells the excessive life of a man who burned every moment, overwhelmed by an irrepressible joie de vivre.
