Poetry around the corner
4th-5th grade primary school and 1st grade secondary school

Location: Provincial Meeting Center, Red Room
Ticket for schools, upon reservation

Hangers, glasses, umbrellas, teddy bears, hammers, leashes, handkerchiefs, scissors, and, of course, car windows: what we see before our eyes every day, and often take for granted, actually hides a poetry waiting to be discovered. Just look at it with new eyes, like a window opened for the first time onto a world we thought we already knew. Everyday objects finally speak out, revealing their frustrations, desires, moments of glory, and small rebellions. Chiara Carminati (Cose che fanno poesia, Rizzoli; with Pia Valentinis) invites readers to slow down, so as not to miss the magic hidden in what surrounds us every day.
