Books & music in “Bottega”: Nicola Calathopoulos at Bottega Tifernate
Books and music in "Bottega" is the name of the new format created by the owners of the Bottega Tifernate in Città di Castello. The company's showroom hosted the presentation of the novel "Damned Forever" by journalist Nicola Calathopoulos on Thursday 16 September 2021.
The exhibition of the Tiferno activity was the meeting place of art in all its forms, from literature to music. The musicians Fabio Battistelli and Christian Riganelli were present to accompany the presentation of the new book. In addition to this, the owners of the company offered tastings of typical Umbrian products.
The protagonist of the evening, presenting his new detective novel "Damned Forever", talks about how it is a text that exudes love for culture, books and art in all its forms. Precisely for this reason - the writer also says - Umbria was an inevitable stop for the presentation tour. Between music and a discussion with Roberto Conticelli, president of the Umbrian Journalists' Association, the author declares to his involved spectators that each of them could have been a companion of the book's protagonist as they are lovers of every art form.
Following the presentation of the novel, while Nicola Calathopoulos signed copies of his book, the guests moved to the part of the exhibition set up for the consumption of typical Umbrian food. Here it was possible to take part in a series of speeches held by the main excellences of the area. Among these we find the owners of the Ceramiche Noi cooperative, Marco Brozzi and Lorenzo Giornelli and Giuliano Martinelli of the Giuliano Tartufi company. Also present were Francesca Zampini, breeder of Azawakh dogs (greyhounds), Professor Pasquale La Gola, president of Tela Umbra and Professor Laura Teza, curator of the exhibition on Raphael. The evening was also accompanied by tastings with sommelier Tiziana Croci.
