Aspettando Lendinusiana: promoting local excellence and literature

The cultural series "Aspettando Lendinusiana" continues its programme across Lendinuso and Torchiarolo, offering events focused on dialogue, local identity and the promotion of territorial excellence.

• 22 April 2026, 19:00 - Sala Valesio, Torchiarolo: a talk titled "Il Sud ha vinto" featuring Alfredo Nolasco and Lino Patruno, aimed at engaging local entrepreneurs and sharing development experiences from Southern Italy.
• 9 May 2026, 18:00 - Villa Memia, Lendinuso: world-premiere presentation of the novel The Secret of Katerina by Italo-Greek writer Maria Gabriella Anglani, the second instalment following Efrossini di Lefkada, a work previously noted by critics (shortlist mention for the 2024 Premio Strega).

The initiative is promoted by the Municipality of Torchiarolo - Department of Culture, the artistic-cultural salon Lendinusiana and the Lions Club Torchiarolo Valesio. Lendinusiana, conceived and led by director Federico Rizzo, seeks to create meeting spaces between communities, cultural operators and figures from the Italian literary scene, supporting the enhancement of local resources and identities.
