FRANCESCO. IL PIÙ ITALIANO DEI SANTI

Aldo Cazzullo presents his latest book, Francesco. Il più italiano dei santi. (Francesco. The Most Italian of Saints), HarperCollins.

The earthly story of a man who encountered power and rejected it to dedicate his entire life to others.

But Power followed Francis and confronted him precisely in this dialogue with the other—in all its forms: human, animal, and divine.

The saint’s influence continues even after his death, between popular devotion and the birth of a movement that sought to return the Church to the poverty of its origins.

Teatro sociale G. Busca

Alba's "Giorgio Busca" Teatro Sociale is one of the most beautiful and historically rich cultural facilities in the city of Alba. In its premises, a high-level theatre season is organised every year featuring concerts, presentations, meetings and conferences. The double structure, with a historic 19th century horseshoe-shaped hall, a modern hall with stalls and gallery and a stage located right in the middle, makes the Teatro Sociale a unique building in Europe.
