This short graphic novel was a commission from the Lets Museum of literature in Trieste and was intended for the promotion of the exhibition to mark the strong relationship between the poet Eugenio Montale and the novelist Italo Svevo.
The graphic novel was first published as a 2-page spread on the newspaper il Piccolo on the day of the opening of the exhibition 18th December 2025 and then again as part of a booklet of the exhibition but with a re-pagination that made it an 8 pages story instead.
Individual panels of the graphic novel were also used around the exhibition and for the posters of the various events that took place at the museum.
Here it is in both forms, and also translated in English.
And here follows the story re-paginated for printing in the museum’s booklet.
And here two panels that were used on their own, the illustration for the poster and the booklet published by the museum.
