Sometimes I find interesting books while watching a film. As happened that evening when, not wanting to stay at the computer, I watched a film on I don't know which channel. It was the story of Beatrix Potter and the film was simply titled Miss Potter , from 2006, starring the talented Renée Kathleen Zellweger, who we also saw in Cold Mountain. Beatrix Potter was an English writer born in London in 1866, but she was also a very good illustrator. The film is very beautiful, in some places even enriched by animations. Beatrix Potter had created her own world of farm animals. His little illustrated books for children were very successful.
To make a long story short, I liked that film and the author's illustrations so much that the next day I searched the web to see if it was possible to find these books by her. A wonderful site has been created on Beatrix Potter, dedicated to her most famous character, Peter Rabbit , where you can find information on her life and works, as well as being able to Special Data purchase both books and merchandise on her characters. A sort of little English Disney. And so not long ago, on Amazon, I purchased a beautiful book, in a box set, with all 23 stories written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter, plus four other small stories. The book is very well looked after, bound with dust jacket, kept in her precious box. Hundreds of beautiful color and black and white illustrations make it even more fascinating. A book for children, but also for adults.
It is obviously in English, but a work like this, which among other things is not in Italian, must be taken and read in the original language.She noticed that people, approaching him, immediately distanced themselves from him, as if they were afraid of trespassing or being bitten, or even contaminated.The mass follows the mass, not the individual. He was amazed to ask himself, or rather to imagine, if an individual, just one, could move the masses. An idea to follow and pursue to reform, for better or for worse, the Rome and Italy of today. It could happen, but what are the consequences? With his mind almost immersed in those thoughts that he considered senseless, he did not notice the immense shadow that darkened the square for a few moments. In front of him he saw people rolling their eyes, but was anyone able to capture what passed over the Roman skies that morning? An elderly woman screamed and fainted.
