Daniele Pasquini, writer, presents his latest novel Selvaggio Ovest in conversation with Filippo Zanetti. A choral adventure that blends history and legend, where rural Italy of the late 19th century encounters the American myth of the Far West. Cowboys, brigands, charcoal burners and herders roam through the Maremma and the Apennines—until Buffalo Bill bursts into the plot with his famous Wild West Show, bringing with him the echo of a spectacular and violent America. Amid horse thefts, revenge, and chases, Pasquini builds a compelling narrative that merges popular epic with historical memory. An Italian-style western that becomes a reflection on identity, storytelling, and the contamination of cultural imaginaries.
