“Un maglione ricamato di cervi”. La tessitura del rapporto genitori-figli nell’opera di Rosetta Loy

Abstract

Rosetta Loy published her debut novel La bicicletta in 1974. This symbolic object of movement makes two brothers and two sisters talk to their father and mother, from adoles-cence to adulthood, sketching conflicts and returns. With-out forgetting the history line that shapes the succession of generations. This article aims to show how the theme es-tablished in La bicicletta will be developed in the following books, from L’estate di Letuchè (1982) to Sogni d’inverno (1992), possibly sublimating itself (perhaps) in the autobio-graphical novel La prima mano (2009).“Un maglione ricamato di cervi”.La tessitura del rapporto genitori-figli nell’opera di Rosetta Loy.
