«Madre Asdrubala: all'asilo si sta bene e s'imparan tante cose!» is the novel by Aldo Busi, published by Mondadori in paperback (183 pages, in Italian).
The narrative centres on Ilaria, an eleven-year-old girl who still perceives colours in a grey and desolate Milan. Her gaze opens a dreamlike and strange universe in which fantasy blends with reality, and through it, childhood, imagination and the loss of innocence in a dehumanised world are addressed.
Originally published in Italian, it is part of the Passepartout letteratura collection (number 3) and corresponds to the first edition.
