Similar to billion-year-old fault lines that cause earthquakes, there are events from our pasts that still shake us up today. One minute, we are totally fine, and then all of the sudden—boom!

When Herman Melville finished Moby Dick, he wrote a letter to his friend Nathaniel Hawthorne and said: "I have written a wicked book and feel spotless as the lamb." Unfortunately, very few people actually finish reading this 'wicked' book. One early critic said: "Melville's book can sink a ship with greater force than any whale that I know of." Moby Dick, as originally written, is just plain heavy, difficult to read from cover to cover.

Slavery, westward expansion, abolition, the Civil War, love, marriage, friendship, tragedy and triumph-all the ingredients (and much more) that made so many love Roses so much-are here in abundance.

“Ho l’idea che dovrò inventare un nuovo nome per i miei libri, con cui sostituire romanzo”. È il 27 giugno 1925, la scrittrice è pronta per il suo nuovo libro. Ne conosce già il nome proprio, ma non ne conosce il genere, né il nome comune. Ne anticipa però il tono: sarà un’elegia – al Faro. Non ha dubbi riguardo a chi l’elegia sarà dedicata. Quel to è preposizione che in inglese non indica semplicemente un moto a luogo; non è solo il vettore di uno spostamento, un possibile o impossibile approdo al Faro.

"Di stanze vuote" è una silloge di venticinque componimenti e aforismi dell'autore. Il titolo "Di stanze vuote" sembra un voluto gioco di parole: leggendo a voce alta può infatti diventare "Distanze vuote". Sono spazi vuoti lasciati dai momenti difficili nei percorsi umani, là dove non c'è una fede a sostenerli. Sarebbero eterne stanze vuote tutte le vicende della vita e tutti gli stati d'animo delle persone se non ci fosse qualcosa a dare un senso a tutto quello che ci circonda. È una metafora ampia e ricca di sfumature, che a sua volta il lettore può riempire con la propria visione delle cose.
