"The port of Brindisi, end of the Appian Way at five in the afternoon, along the steps at the foot of the Roman columns.
"Two stretches of still and silent sea, the engine of the boat that connects the shores of the port, the bar and its cheerful customers, birds singing in spring, a sudden plane that takes flight from the nearby airport.
"A counterpoint with an insistent rhythm that melts and drops a semitone at the moment of takeoff and detachment before nostalgia. An instant in a place of transit for centuries, voices and travellers who went."
