Co-authors of the 2013 book Point Lenana.

Point Lenana (2013) is described by the authors as an 'unidentified narrative object' (UNO). The book mixes novel, biography, reportage and documented historical inquiry, embedding Felice Benuzzi's No Picnic on Mount Kenya/Fuga sul Kenya and addressing Italian colonial history and mountaineering.

Stanlio praises Point Lenana (2013) by Wu Ming 1 and Roberto Santachiara as an unforgettable, hybrid work. The book embeds other texts (notably Felice Benuzzi's No Picnic on Mount Kenya/Fuga sul Kenya) and traces a century of Italian history, including colonial atrocities and mountaineering narratives. Authors describe it as an 'unidentified narrative object' (UNO). The review highlights the book's moral urgency and genre-blending approach.

For:Readers interested in Italian history, mountaineering literature, and hybrid literary forms

 Point Lenana by Wu Ming 1 and Roberto Santachiara is the last beautiful book I've read (so far) that left quite a few marks on my soul and will be hard to forget in light of many contemporary and current events.
