For a Handful of Books

Season 17 Episode 11: The Nose (by Nikolai Gogol)

The book in play is the funny long story by Nikolaj Gogol "The Nose": can you suddenly lose your nose, then find it walking down the street and finally get it back? That's what happens to Gogol's protagonist against whom the two competing classes must compete. They are the 5°B of the Carolina Poerio high school of human sciences in Foggia, and the 5°F of the Giovanni Verga high school of linguistic sciences in Adrano (Catania). Up for grabs are many books and above all the chance to access the final next week that will be played between the classes that have ranked best during the season of "Per un pugno di libri".
