Before entering the archive, choose a path.
Meet the person behind the narratives.
Enter a story of memory, desire, consequence, and legacy.
These maps trace relationships, memory and human behavior, not territory.
Facts first. The noir comes after.
This is not a library. It is not a blog.
It is not a publishing project designed to sell content, but a memory system built around one simple idea:
People forget faster than history disappears.
Choose any door. Start anywhere.
Nothing is for sale. The stories are free.
The relationships are real.
Your time is the most precious thing.

I would have liked to write books, I would have liked to sell them on Amazon and get rich, I would have liked a bit of visibility in my Italy too, and to be recognized in the street, like someone famous.
Instead, no: they pissed me off, badly. Everyone wanted to be in charge, to dominate, to make money on my shoulders. And so instead I built this literary monster.
How will it end? Nobody knows, for one reason only: nobody expected it to arrive, to come from Calabria, to be born on 9 June 2026 and to finish its publications on 31 October 2026.
So what is left? Good question.
Only a man who, inside an airport, hears a Japanese manager tell him:
Frega capisci sti.
And I answer: capisciaaaaaaa
