Introduces Massimo Raffaeli

The book describes a journey roundtrip from Arbus, the land of knives, to Turin, the city of the car and of hope for so many emigrants in search of a less bleak future of what awaited them in the hinterland of western Sardinia, as well as many others in the south of Italy. Here then is the story of the work at Mirafiori, of the '69 with workers' struggles, of the 70s, of the defeats and the return to Sardinia, with the discovery of a new life in contact with the sea and its environment.
The book is a dialogue between Gianni Usai and Loris Campetti, journalist and writer, covering more than sixty age of small and large history, and wonders about the hopes, dreams and nightmares, the victories and defeats of a piece of generation - the sessantottini - that continues to believe that another world is possible.

Gianni Usai, who emigrated from Sardinia to Turin, he worked at Fiat Mirafiori until 1980. He worked at the construction and growth of the fishermen cooperative of Su Pallosu and collaborates with the Institute of Marine Biology of the University of Cagliari.
