"Well you can speak Italian so yes or no?" Who is this main character who does not seem to understand what is being said to him? Is it a migrant? Is he lost in unknown territory? He era and tries to follow his path between survival and discretion.
From past colored cards, from an old-fashioned method of learning Italian and other devious documents, Corso against the hand leads the reader in the footsteps of this lonely character in an environment that remains foreign to him. Who is this individual who seems to have just landed on the Italian coast? Olivier Spinewine gives tracks, let everyone walk alongside this man. One accompanies thus its wandering. The book is like an immersion in a carnival procession. In Spanish, 'corso contramano' refers to the madman. He is the one who takes the opposite path in spite of all the warnings. Our individual receives the Italian words he hears as a series of jeers. This world does not seem to want him, but he is moving forward. Right in front of him.
