 "I have recounted some stories around the location of the property at Via Carlo Borromeo 10/E in Cortesforza, Milan. I will live in this place only for a little while longer, but for now I am here, without a twist, a farewell at the airport check-in, without a sex scene, a hospital bed, the feeling of impending doom, a happy moment during the appetizer, without a naked woman on the scale, a legendary character who always has the smart remark, three lines from the start and immediately an enlightening dialogue."(G. Falco, "L'ubicazione del bene", Einaudi 2009, p. 49)
