I hope the reader will be indulgent toward the extreme dispersion of themes, tones, and angles of approach that he will find in this collection. My justification is: the 'pieces' are situated in an arc of time that is close to a quarter of a century, the time of my almost total fidelity to LA STAMPA: and in twenty-five years many things change, inside us and around us.

Une jeune fille qui se voit pousser des ailes, un passe-muraille victime de ses dons, un fabricant qui invente un miroir capable de révéler ce que les autres voient réellement de vous... Les contes philosophiques ou fantastiques de Primo Levi alternent ici avec les récits de son enfance, des évocations d'Auschwitz où il fut interné de 1943 à 45 et des réflexions que lui suggèrent les sujets les plus divers : les rêves des cosmonautes, les alcools frelatés, les dangers de la recherche scientifique, le désarmement nucléaire. En 1986, un an avant son suicide, Primo Levi réunissait ces textes qu'il avait publiés à l'origine, sur un quart de siècle, dans le quotidien La Stampa.
