Heated Circulation Socks

Palermo Sicily (Italy, Sicily, Mediterranean)





Out breathe. For the first time we were afraid. The bombs continued to rain.

(Agota Kristof - Trilogy of the City of k.)

excessive Palermo, distress and delirium. Palermo excessive and embarrassing. Palermo martyrdom. From the port of palm trees and wind, steeped in the aroma of anchovies and oil vessels direct access to poor areas that burst directly from the dust of the cove and out of the sea.

Palermo face sacred and holy spirit, the belly of a young widow who comes from the sea, from far away, for ever and ever, who has a thousand faces, but in arm its streets, and cradle them and nursed them, like a concerned mother and patient, and the Vucciria Kalsa resemble his veins swollen with blood boiling, those lanes are similar to streams of water, currents in moist atmosphere which reigns tuff, peace and stale; light bulbs on the day on the stalls while the voices of the fishermen are wet and scratched the groans and shrieks of money chasing young women roll up and rush through the streets.

Palermo prayer and iconography of the saints, Palermo blasphemous and Orthodox. Palermo filthy. Suddenly, a cathedral, an altar, or even just a church, whose walls, ointments incensed by the sea, are a mixture of gray, cement and salt. Everywhere there is a crowding of buildings in a different time, different each other, sung in a single color and dissonant, senseless, quell'ocra ancient African sands that refers to the soft tones of kerosene lamps, Moroccan architecture up to the majestic whims of the eastern caliphs. From Kalsa to Porta Nuova through Pretoria, Santa Caterina, the Quattro Canti, the cathedral and the palace chapel. A color coming and going hungry, a melting pot of ages, a mixture of traits.

huge Porto, Palermo mother and her voices, those of the peddlers of fish, olives and spices, traders tuna and spleen stationed in front of their shops, with swollen faces of those who did not sleep. Wherever he hears their cry, a lullaby sweet and foul-mouthed, Palermo chipped, a language which is the return to a song, a sigh of poetry in which the long vowels and accents of bitter recall the enchantment of the legendary mermaids, and the verses celebrators of Turks who welcome the arrival of the sun.

raining a torrential downpour and surrounds the narrow streets of Palermo BallarĂ² covered with trash and stalls where cries of fruit and fish alive, no one seems to believe the water that comes from above. And 'the dark sun, prophecy magic gold wet all hoped the reward for the torture of a summer hot. In the market for all their arms upward for a moment and curse their business while shouting for joy, they bow to greet the arrival of the sea that comes from heaven. A BallarĂ² houses have plaster crumbling, gas cylinders are out on the balconies and the roofs of some houses were smashed, but the children continue to play ball under the covers, before the doors of shops and the gates of the churches. In

Kalsa, Via Alloro, just before building Abetellis, I stop in front of a shop with no sign that the shutter half-closed. Out on a sign is written in pen tablet Miezu meusa about € 1.70. By. Father and son have the same size. There are at least wide as their height. The environment is dirty, the counter is poor. The father swears in Sicilian dialect and cut into slices a loaf of dark meat and takes it collects in a bowl. I order a sandwich. The young man dropped the sliced \u200b\u200bmeusa left in the pot where it is frying and boiling lard, and a black oil. Li takes a few moments later, and without them drain it compresses a large amount in the fresh bread.

Castrovalva (Aq)





A single blade of grass, one beetle, one ant, a bee by the reflections of gold ... testify to the divine mystery of instinct
(Dostoevsky - Brothers Karamazov)


Castrovalva is a village with a fluency that stretches from the raw rock, a rocky crust that protrudes from one of the many clumps of stone that anticipate the river gorges of Sagittarius. Castrovalva is little more than a handful of houses, lined up at random, over the top. E 'right there, at that point and at that hour, that the stone fades into a gray ash and limestone that smacks of old, while some lock shaft caresses the wall of the overhanging cliff that slopes down to the river, of which you hear only the lure of each shower. Above is
Castrovalva, north of a south ever seen, anonymous and destroyed, and the south infinite set of countries, sweet and naughty, lonely and silent. The countries are all as part of a world that knows no latitudes or cardinal points. All belong to the one bisector, including Castrovalva facing severe and austere on Anversa degli Abruzzi and that puts the shivers just looking at it. If you come from Sulmona, before crossing the gorge and cross the lake of Scanno, you can see a path on the left and so emaciated that took place in the endless greenery, an old paved mule track that goes on top. To search for an indication of the road that leads to the top, you have to peek between the trees, digging and digging with bare hands. That signal is a betrayal. The country comes to
end of a journey that winds and climbs to the top. To get there, close your eyes and hold your breath, do not look down, because the rail is thin and exposed to the vacuum and the primal thrill of flight is a fascinating and sublime imagination can not keep, but not to let go, can not contain.
Castrovalva addition there is only a rough sky into segments that swears rain.
to welcome me there's a fig tree still in embryo, a frayed straw chair and a fountain that never ceases to deliver water source. A Castrovalva winter there are fifteen people, but people swear proudly eighteen. The country is a big house, the streets are corridors of tufa virgin. On the front of the church there is a large wrist watch covered by a sheet of opaque glass. The square has no name on the sign and it says simply Piazza.
summer to get around two hundred, among family and friends, and some romantic alone. The village is only accessible on foot. Fabrizio, is not here, as they are not wearing the brace and it is even less than his wife, a huge Dutch woman smiling blonde. The focus of the capital city betrays him and vows to escape from Rome as often as he can, because he is in love with this place thirty years ago and do not leave it for the world. The earthquake has just lapped Castrovalva. Everything was saved here, except a wall of the church of Santa Maria a Nives. A Castrovalva you die just yet life abounds and flourishes in his loneliness and helpless in the dignity of grass sprayed inexorably from the sun.
