• the graphic novels by Will Eisner, Art Spiegelman, David B., Igort, Adrian Tomine, Gipi, Guy Delisle, Daniel Clowes, Michel Rabagliati, Sammy Harkham, Rutu Modan, Gabriella Giandelli (see, for some of them, Coconino Press – Fandango – and Drawn and Quarterly);
• the movies by Mike Leigh, Patrice Chereaux, Aki Kaurismäki, Matteo Garrone, Céline Sciamma, Roberto Minervini, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Alice Rohrwacher, …
• novels, essays, poetry (too long list of favourite authors)

  My latests reads (the Italian editions): La porca miseria by Cash Carraway (2023); orig. Skint Estate. Notes from the poverty line, Penguin Random House 2019
