Ageroland

by Carlotta Cerquetti

Ageroland is a village in the province of Naples, hidden behind the mounts of the Amalfi coast. Near the main square there is a tobacco shop owned by Sabato Cuomo, acute thinker, dogged smoker, ironic reporter of the daily life and observer of the human soul. The inhabitants of the village go every day to Sabato's shop: some of them buy the newspaper or the cigarettes, some other take their chances playing the lottery or just go to make small talks or to buy a notebook. Sabato introduces us some of these persons and let us get to know them better: Marilena, the postwoman, Stefano, the fashion designer, Lello the neomelodic singer, Marinella, a former football player, Geremia, the retired, Angelo, the taxi driver, Nick, the emigrant and some other. Ageroland is the portrait of a village and its characters.
