Presentazione libro: Per aspera ad astra di Lorenzo Fonda.

I Mercati Culturali Pordenone are thrilled to host Lorenzo Fonda for the presentation of his autobiographical comic book, in which the author recounts the year following the death of his wife, Elena Xausa, an internationally renowned illustrator. Through drawings and narration, Fonda explores grief and loss, transforming pain into a therapeutic and creative journey. This book is both a love story and a reflection on life, death, and everything that passes through them—both the beautiful and the painful.

It will be an intimate and visual experience, a dialogue between the author and Davide Toffolo.

After the presentation, there will be a book signing and an aperitif accompanied by a DJ set by The Very Selecta.

A convivial moment to meet Lorenzo Fonda, chat, listen to good music, and enjoy a Birra Galassia, our drink partner for the evening.

A big thank you to Associazione Obliquo, creator and curator of the evening.
