About this ebook
Aninu è la storia di una prostituta sacra dell'isola vulcanica di Santorini prima della grande eruzione del XVII secolo a.C. che ha cancellato la civiltà minoica "nello spazio di un giorno e di una notte tremenda", come ci riferisce Platone nel Timeo riferendola alla mitica Atlantide. Le vicende narrate in questo romanzo, la cui protagonista, fondando una comunità ideale di vita chiamata Thera e facendosi tutt'una con la tragica fine della sua amata isola, si presentano come eventi fondativi della cultura occidentale. In Aninu, la descrizione dei luoghi, la rappresentazione dei costumi, la rievocazione delle credenze e dei miti delle popolazioni toccate dalle vicende narrate sono frutto di una meticolosa ricerca archeologica su ciò che sappiamo di questo misterioso popolo che vanta, come antenati, gli abitanti della più antica città del mondo, Çatal, nell'odierna Turchia, oggi dichiarata patrimonio dell'umanità, e come discendenti le mirabili popolazioni della Grecia classica. La storia di Aninu e della sua isola, unitamente alle vicissitudini degli altri protagonisti, offrono al lettore l'occasione per rivisitare, e in qualche modo per rivivere, gli aspetti meno conosciuti o ancora abitati dal mistero delle multiformi civiltà che si sono affacciate sul Mediterraneo, inesauribile mare delle meraviglie.
