About the Event
Tra cinema, letteratura e cultura, un italiano d'eccezione racconta in un libro storie e segreti degli ospiti leggendari del suo salotto americano.
​Nel salotto newyorkese di Antonio Monda sono passate alcune delle più grandi icone della cultura americana: da Meryl Streep a Muhammad Ali, da Ingrid Bergman a Stephen King, passando per Cate Blanchett, Philip Roth e Toni Morrison. Nel suo libro Incontri ravvicinati (La nave di Teseo), Monda rivela retroscena inediti e momenti intimi con queste straordinarie personalità. Un’occasione imperdibile per ascoltare l’autore raccontare dal vivo alcune di queste storie affascinanti.
