MANUEL SANTINI – Villa Argentina Dossier
After decades of neglect, Villa Argentina, a fine example of liberty style in the middle of Viareggio, re-finds its splendour as a congress centre. One evening in August, a pair of lovers who work there seek some intimacy in one of the offices of the ex pension, but the floors do not follow their usual order. Something strange happens, something disquieting that will challenge chief detective, Sergio Zoiatrato, with the most intriguing case of his career.
Event conceived by the Provincial Authorities of Lucca, along with Viareggio Town Council, the Tobino Foundation and Puccini Festival Foundation, in collaboration with the Lungomare bookshop in Viareggio.
