VIXI Page 1

This is the first page of a new story I'm working on. Glauco Malatesta is a painter who worked for the fascist party but starts to look with suspicion to that infamous group due to the brutal murder of Giacomo Matteotti. What he still doesn't know is that many secrets are still hidden behind the surface of the dictatorship to be and that he will soon be chosen by fate as a very unlikely hero.

The lettering has to be revised, but here is a rough translation for every man or woman of good will that will like to read the page in english.

1 - "Silence. It is everywhere. It breathes as a living thing. I can almost hear the noise of the snow falling and the engine's roar becomes an ear-splitting din."

2 - "There's something in the air. Something suspended. As when we pass from wakefulness to sleep."

3 - "It is no wonder that the village of Sotera is avoided by most, nor am I surprised that Amilcare Gamberini Spada has elected it to his home, like the tormented writer who he claims to be."

4 - "Intellectuals. People think that I fall in the category just because my hands are dirty of color because I daub some canvases for the "Duce". Only God knows how much I hate those pompous bastards and if wouldn’t prefer to be headed elsewhere ..."

6 - "If it were not for her."
