About this ebook:
Lucia ha sedici anni e un cognome – Carbone – che spegne il suo nome, «come il nero e la luce, come la rabbia e l’amore». Del resto, ogni cosa sembra presentarsi doppia ai suoi occhi: maschile e femminile, ad esempio, o corpo e mente. E, soprattutto, il mondo di sopra, quello che abita ogni giorno con la sua famiglia, e il mondo di sotto: la buia cantina in cui ha rinchiuso Rosario dopo averlo rapito. In questo libro magnetico tutto è imprevedibile, perché tutto, proprio tutto, matura nell’immaginario di un’autrice che ha molto da dire e un modo originalissimo per farlo. Reggio Calabria, primi anni Ottanta. La sedicenne Lucia Carbone, studentessa del liceo classico, sequestra un compagno di scuola e lo imprigiona nello scantinato della casa della nonna morta da pochi mesi. Il ragazzo, Rosario Cristallo, è figlio d’un boss dell’Aspromonte, e Lucia lo ha rapito per due buone (o cattive) ragioni: la prima è che la sua migliore amica ne è innamorata, e vuole tenerlo lontano da lei, la seconda è che forse Rosario sa qualcosa sull’assassinio di una zia amatissima. Mentre fa visita ogni giorno al suo prigioniero, la vita di Lucia prosegue apparentemente come al solito: in famiglia – col padre, la madre e il fratellino Gedo –, nel quartiere e a scuola, dove Lucia si innamora di Carmine, un ragazzo dei quartieri alti. Reggio, intanto, città ferita che esce dalla prima guerra di ’ndrangheta, è teatro degli scontri tra il Fronte della Gioventù e il Collettivo studentesco: c’è una sorta di violenza diffusa, che prende strade diverse. E la violenza è anche nei gesti quotidiani di Lucia, e nelle cose, ad esempio in quel coltello rosso che si ritrova tra le mani quando scende nel mondo di sotto, dove c’è il suo segreto. Fino a quando ogni cosa si capovolge, il sopra e il sotto si confondono come tutti gli opposti, e lei matura una decisione inaspettata. “Col buio me la vedo io” è un romanzo che costruisce un universo a poco a poco, con forza, coerenza e una fantasia sbalorditiva, ricco di pagine da incorniciare, come quelle in cui una madre e una figlia piegano le lenzuola calibrando i gesti in una sorta di duello western. Ed è anche un libro sulla giustizia e sul Sud lontanissimo da tutti i clichés: quando usa il dialetto (sempre con parsimonia) non è mai per un effetto di colore ma per cercare a tentoni l’unico senso possibile. Perché il dialetto si può usare «per schermare o per chiarire, è la lingua dei grandi, funziona in tutti e due i modi». E il cibo è soprattutto uno strumento di potere e di controllo: «Se ti sfamo sei salvo, e sei mio». Il modo che ha Anna Mallamo, concreto e immaginifico insieme, di ruotare intorno ad alcuni temi – famiglia, verità, donna, confine, casa –, riaggiornando via via le definizioni nel corso della storia, vi resterà a lungo addosso.
