“Per un biglietto del cinema in più” For an Extra Cinema Ticket

Illustration for the cover of Lia Levi’s novel, “For an Extra Cinema Ticket,” published by Salani. Lia Levi, a Holocaust survivor writer, tells us about the postwar period, the poverty and carefree life of boys who grew up in and from the streets. Middle-class boys who spend their time sneaking into a movie theater without paying a ticket, in a wounded but living city.
