Review: "They left all"

John Merian, are all gone, 2010, SAGEP

Meriana John tells us the stories that no one tells. It speaks of the villages of the Apennines and their stories of isolation, loneliness and rural tradition. Places to which all fled, those who after the first, to "see the world", to "make a fortune." The depopulation of the valleys of Liguria, which affected the entire first half of the twentieth century, has weakened the economy and the environment mount, also doing some victim. The name of one of these victims is Reneusi, the most deprived and isolated village of the Apennines Genovese, of which there Meriana illustrates the daily life, with the familiarity and emotion of those who lived, albeit in the distant childhood. It is not only a record of material culture, but it's a little poetic compendium of humanity, which can not help but make a little 'heart, if only for the fact that this past, which takes color fictionalized here, although never to distance oneself from life, is still very close.

There is no official history for Reneusi for Cerisola and all other villages, like flies, undermining the coastal cool of the mountains. Then, based on the limited information available, Meriana creates a story without presumption, with the simplicity of people who want to restore to humanity left corner of the world, who wants to give voice to those who now no longer breath.

History Reneusi and tragedy that marked the end, like that of Cerisola and its anime, along with all the stories in the book is made up, excited as small events, events that never had the resonance outside their small area. Short flash , notes of micro, anthropology, heritage and a pinch of political criticism that return a multi-faceted vision and moving to the rapid passage of time and things that remain and that dissolve in that strange and jagged landscape that we call Liguria.

This book is not just a collection of fiction, but like others of the same genre released in recent years, is a small resource liguricità written with the talent of the narrator and the attention of the scholar.
