Quotes About Encounter

La letteratura agisce sulle fibre nervose di chi s'imbatte nel fortunoso incontro tra un libro e la propria vita. Sono appuntamenti che non si possono prenotare né raccomandare. A ogni lettore spetta la sorpresa di fronte alla mescola improvvisa tra i suoi giorni e le pagine di un libro.
