POSTSCRIPT
"Freedom Traffic is not yet recognized as a universal right for people who leave their country for economic, political, climatic or just try their luck elsewhere.
On every continent, there is the phenomenon of rejection, racism or violence that target those who seem to take advantage of international opportunities offered by globalization. The security arguments, the transformation into a scapegoat for those who are wrongly called "illegals", concerns regarding the preservation of social, issues of identity, are all themes that drive political discourse and the social imaginary when deals the issue of migration. "
This novel does not try to ask these questions and answer them. He is attempting to write the history of this time, having to write a narrative fictional frame and thread the inter-cultural dialogue.
Far artifices of committed literature, far from a "culture shock" - a term to thrust forward indiscriminately - the author hopes that the main hero of this book is the language, just the language - the language own a writer.
