Quotes 

• Zerocalcare : It's just that Orpheus isn't in this story, there's only Eurydice who goes to hell and no one who goes looking for her. And after 20 years she manages to come back alone, when no one remembered her anymore, and you are even surprised if she is no longer the same.

• Zerocalcare : The truth is that I am a kind of beached whale. As long as I had people around who prodded me it was as if they gave me a jolt, they moved me. But rightly so people have aged. Who has the children, who has the job. It's normal, the world doesn't stick with you forever. So in the end I was left with that beached whale which, however, without someone to prod it, is only capable of working. And when he's not working he decomposes slowly on this beach which isn't even a beach anymore. It is a desert on which there is nothing.
