Of course, comments and speeches will be open to all Italian readers of Wallace, who are invited to join the initiative: a Facebook page and a Google Group will be open for the occasion, giving more opportunity to interact with anyone who wanted it.
The reading group is a tribute to a writer who in Italy has a following of loyal and attentive readers, thanks to the valuable work, quite unique in the world, especially publishers Fandango, Minimum Fax, and Einaudi, who translated and published his books back in the late '90s.
