brossura L'autore ha inteso portare all'attenzione del lettore le vicende vissute da 20 personaggi della storia nei campi più svariati e dissimili quali, musica, letteratura, scienze, pittura, scultura, santi d'eccellenza, militari affermatisi, ecc. a partire dai grossi nomi quali Dante, Manzoni, Leopardi, Puccini, Verdi, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Napoleone, Garibaldi, don Bosco, s. Francesco, madre Teresa e molti altri riscontrabili nel testo, con l'intento preciso di approfondire gli aspetti intimi di ciascuno nello scorrere della loro esistenza, in particolare inserita nel tempo vissuto.
