Una storia, varie storie dal poetico pensiero che ci illanguidiscono malinconici come quando ci accarezza la lieve brezza estiva o la carezza dell¿amante. Alla sua prima opera Alberto Riccardo Azzini ci regala un saggio ricco di pathos e dolcezza, lui, lo scrittore un abile camminatore, cammina per la via Francigena, immaginando e parafrasando la vita con devota e amorevole benevolenza, facendoci supporre un presente buono e accogliente.
