From serious to ironic to disenchantedalso passing through more intimate accents, The ways of the katana (Feltrinelli Editore) by Piero Colaprico is a large collection of short stories about criminal, political, social and psychological complexity of the last fifty years: the corruption spreading from the police forces to politics, the role of the secret services in national and international contexts, organized crime in its adaptation to the changing times, immigration.
Milan is the privileged settingbut policemen and secret agents, criminals and nostalgics of the armed struggle, politicians and fixers, oppressed men and women in search of some form of redemption tell the story of Italy from North to South, tracing the dense geographical network of the male and expanding their networks to Pakistan, China, even Salgari’s India.
Colaprico confirms his inventiveness, in a variety of tones from serious to ironic to disenchanted, also passing through more intimate accents.
