With his usual tragicomic perspective, Benjamin Kuras presents his Italy that has been scrutinized, explored and tasted through and through as the birthplace of our civilization and its archive, museum, pinacoteca, phonotheque and gastrotheque. It accompanies us from region to region through spectacular cities and surprising towns, fascinating buildings, prominent personalities of its history, the oddities of its traditions and customs, the gems of its gastronomy, the gems of its artistic, musical and literary creations and its design. He anxiously contrasts them with its current economic crisis (4 million below the poverty line, a third of youth unemployment), demographic (decline of the population due to non-births and emigration by a quarter of a million per year, depopulation of the countryside and smaller cities), migration (continuing influx of hundreds of thousands of Afro-Islamic illegals), a waning respect for their civilizational achievements, a weakening of the qualities and skills that formed them, and a loss of continuity, meaning and will to continue. Concerned about the approaching end of this civilizational wealth, he invites us to start absorbing it urgently, for our own cultural and civilizational salvation.
