  • Campania resembles a large theater with Vesuvius at the center of the scene: Naples at its feet, the Tyrrhenian in front and the hinterland behind it, forming an articulated cavea of ??peaks and valleys where centuries of rural life have left deep traces. In the new Green Guide, three Campania storytellers - Franco Arminio, Lorenzo Marone and Natalino Russo - capture the human and natural dimensions of a wonderful region - exuberant, complex, stratified. History, art, poetry, the pleasures of the sea and good food, cultural and anthropological riches are mixed in a pastiche that constitutes the essence of the Mediterranean: here is in succession the Gulf of Naples with its islands, the Sorrento peninsula, the Amalfi coast , Cilento, Salerno, Caserta and the Benevento Sannio of silence and light. Up to Irpinia and its forgotten villages, to which the fellow countryman Arminio dedicates a heartfelt survey and unpublished verses of a flaming clarity, such as these: «We come to Frigento to visit the sky or to look at other countries from afar. He goes up one side and goes down the other. You think you'll find the South of starvation and instead you find a sober and simple country like a chair.
