About the Book

In quei giorni i donatori di ovuli non esistevano e c'era solo un modo per un nascituro di arrivare fra noi. Immaginate una donna che s'innamora di un uomo che non puo vederla. Immaginate una donna che non possa avere figli, ma deve fornirne uno per motivi dinastici e lo concepisce con l'aiuto inconsapevole del suo amante cieco e della sua amica lesbica pienamente consapevole. Ma chi fu veramente Margaux von Wuttembach? Una musicista, una prostituta, una milionaria, una maga? un'avventuriera dei sensi come qualcuno la defini? Una donna la cui vita s'intreccia con quella della Germania di Adenauer e Fassbinder. E' infatti assieme al suo paese che la vediamo risorgere dalle rovine del passato, e questo libro del resto puo darcene solo brevi accenni. Ma continuate ad immaginare un principe siciliano, ma mezzo inglese, abbastanza da trovarsi a combattere assieme ai Tommies del Generale Montgomery contro i membri della sua stessa famiglia; un uomo che a guerra finita diventa cieco per l'esplosione di una mina. In questa sua parentesi buia Foudroye e Margaux s'incontrano e danno inizio ad un'intensa storia d'amore. Sarebbe piu appropriato dire un intrigo mascherato da storia d'amore. E' lo schema di questa storia all'indomani della seconda guerra mondiale. Siamo in Sicilia, il futuro carico di energie e in estremo contrasto col passato; la grande Guerra e passata ma vi sono ancora dei rigurgiti come dopo ogni grosso terremoto, uno di questi e certamente la guerra di liberazione del Tirolo che funge da magnete a questa storia sempre in movimento, dalla Sicilia dove inizia, alle montagne dell'Oberzalberg, a Parigi al seguito di quell'aristocrazia i cui sogni erano stati si consegnati alla memoria del mondo, ma parti di essi continuavano a vivere fra i confini della MittelEuropa forse perche la Mitteleuropa non e uno Stato: e' una cultura o un destino, i suoi confini sono immaginari e devono essere ridisegnati al formarsi di ogni nuova situazione storica. (Milan Kundera) Mentre personaggi ed eventi non smettono mai d'inseguirsi, la realta raramente prova di essere tale: non si sa mai veramente se si e a Berlino sotto le bombe del Generale Patton, in Algeria coi meharisti del Colonnello Martin, chez Maxim con i vincitori di ieri o i vincitori di oggi; anche quando veniamo coinvolti nella guerra in Sud Tirolo, non possiamo mai veramente non sentirci parte di una donchisciottesca atmosfera. In quell'incontro con Hemingway per esempio si arriva fino a pensare che lo scrittore possa essersi smarrito nelle pagine di un altro romanzo. Ma poi e proprio a la Place de La Contrescarpe che lo incontriamo, li dove aveva vissuto e aveva scritto Parigi E' Una Festa Mobile, magari in un periodo diverso. Ma le stagioni del tempo in questa storia sono come ali di farfalla che continuano a sovrapporsi."
