The book: This Guide is an invitation to discover one of the most iconic places in Sicily and all of Italy, an attempt to venture into the crevices that host the lesser-known stories of the volcano, without neglecting the many legends that have fueled its myth. Etna contains within itself, in its countless layers, the fashions and trends of thousands of years of folklore: here meet mythological dreams, Christian saints and devils, the old undefeated glories of folk horror, and even extraterrestrials. The book includes an imaginative map of Etna indicating the places where the narrated events take place. The author: A journalist, he writes for "Quotidiano di Sicilia" and is the editor-in-chief of the magazine "Move in Sicily." He has written for "Corriere del Mezzogiorno" and other regional newspapers. After completing academic studies in Contemporary History, with a thesis on Philip K. Dick, he has alternated his passion for genre literature with the analysis and study of the publishing sector. He curated a column dedicated to monsters in horror literature and cinema for horror.it, and his stories have appeared in the magazine "Parallaxis," on Daniele Barbieri's blog (labottegadelbarbieri.org), and within the weird fiction volume Strange Visions by Edizioni Hypnos. He continues to work as a journalist but dreams of flying discs made from rims and monsters with flat caps. For Palindromo, he published, with illustrations by Chiara Nott, Fantastic Creatures of Sicily and the Contemporary Bestiary of Sicily.
