Saturday 28th September – 6:30 PM – Hangar Volo
Dialogue between author Matteo Bussola and psychotherapist Alberto Rossetti.
Moderated by journalist Margherita Grotto.
Matteo Bussola describes a knot of our time: teenage fragility. He writes a touching, grace-filled story about the betrayal involved in becoming oneself. And he shows us, with honesty and delicacy, what it feels like to be faced with the pain of a child, but also the light of parenthood, which even in the darkness continues to shine. For it is difficult to embrace the truth of those we love, especially if we have brought them into the world. But love always brings with it a rebirth.
Alberto Rossetti works in the adult and teenager clinic and in sport psychology. He is the author of several essays discussing teenage and the relationship between generations. In his latest book, “Viva la libertà – teenagers need to experience it,” there are the stories and problems of the many teenagers who are faced on the one hand with boundless freedom and on the other with the absence of freedom. Not at all conflicting positions because without boundaries there is no freedom and at the same time too much control prevents them from experiencing it.
The meeting is organized by the St. Paul Bookstore.
