When Manituana hit the bookshops we unanymously decided NOT to hit Bologna, the city we live in, with our book tour. We have become deeply disaffected with this wax museum, its agoraphobic politics, its miserable narrow-mindedness, its fear of shadows, and its mayor. Without any remorse, we decided to meet up with readers in the neighbouring villages and municipalities, where the air is less stenching. We talked at San Lazzaro di Savena, Castenaso, and Rastignano. It was precisely at the Rastignano public library that our fellow novelist Valerio Evangelisti opened the event saying a few insightful things about our novel.
Compagnia Fantasma [Phantom Company] was founded in Bologna in 2002. Its members are Daniele Bergonzi, Andrea Giovannucci, Alessandro Giovannucci and Stefano D'Arcangelo. They write and stage original theatrical works, and are very fond of radio dramas. They have also established a long-time collaboration with Wu Ming. In the past few years Compagnia Fantasma have done readings from our novels and short stories (e.g. 54, In Like Flynn, and now Manituana). On the right column, the links to both their official website and the audiotheque at wumingfoundation.com.
