La librería en la colina

La librería en la colina

Donati, Alba

Fleeing from the turmoil of the city, Alba Donati decided to change the course of her life and return to her native Lucignana, a town of one hundred and eighty inhabitants in the Tuscan countryside. After launching a crowdfunding campaign and requesting a donation of books from publishers in Italy, in 2019 she opened the doors of the Sopra la Penna bookstore. Her day to day passes between reading recommendations, requests and ideas to make that cabin near the forest a unique place where, in addition to the literary novelties that Alba chooses with care, the visitor is immersed in a universe full of surprises: a bookshelf pirate for forgotten books, socks with quotes from Pride and Prejudice, Emily Dickinson calendars, or snacks with a tea that bears the name of Charlotte Brontë and a jam that tastes like Alice in Wonderland. And another universe gravitates around her: that of clients, friends, helpers, neighbors and relatives for whom the bookstore on the hill, with its beautiful window onto the valley, has become a huge window on the world.
