The Guerna at Martinèi
by Franco Volpi
Description
Every time I visit my home town, I take time out to walk along the Guerna stream, passing through the village of Forno, where I was born, as far as Glera. I went back there recently and I was delighted and amazed to find the stream with its crystal-clear water, the likes of which I haven't seen since I was a child playing there with my friends, imaginatively transforming a puddle into a piece of sea.
