With Cristiano Godano
Opening reading by Erika Grillo and Giorgio Consoli
Cristiano Godano, frontman of Marlene Kuntz, offers a collection of profound reflections on music and contemporary society in The Sound of Anger. Thoughts on Music and the World (Il Saggiatore). Through intense and engaging prose, he addresses themes such as beauty, love, humility, dictatorship, freedom, complexity and climate change. A work that invites the reader to question their way of inhabiting the world, without remaining silent, but singing it with passion.
This event is part of the Medimex Book Stories review, in its seventh edition and which this year has as its theme and title Literary Deviations, in continuity with the thematic track of the Medimex 2025 edition.
The protagonists of this edition are singers and musicians who have chosen to leave the usual trajectory of musical production to take new expressive paths, relying on the writing of novels, poems, autobiographies and short stories. A deviation, indeed, but also a natural extension of a communicative urgency that transcends genres and embraces narration in all its forms.
The review is conducted by its creator Corrado Minervini—writer, music critic and radio host and takes place at the Literary Café Cibo per la Mente in Taranto.
