FLORENCE, ITALY – “A Tear in the Heart” (Con un buco nel cuore) by Sasha Perugini (Italic Edition 2011) is the story of a woman who plays tough: never afraid, never complaining, not even when faced with a significant heart operation. The author, director of Syracuse University in Florence, Italy, tells her experience in Italian with self-irony and lightness even in the most dramatic moments.
With its detailed report towards the fearful operating theatre table the author gives an important message to us: vulnerability is not weakness but strength and wisdom. She indicates a possible path to enjoy our existence and offers a clear answer to the fear of living.
In Florence, the next presentations of the book are scheduled on March 15 in at Syracuse University, Piazza Savonarola 15, at 5:30 pm. For more info: Sasha Perugini’s website.
