The restaurant of the week: "Tavern of the White"
If you happen to go to Spresiano (TV) I suggest you stop by Osteria Bianca. The place is tiny but elegantly decorated, the reception is excellent.
If you like the fish rely on the menu proposed by the cook, if I remember correctly, understand how appetizers a fresh seafood salad on a bed of lettuce and tomatoes, and to follow the excellent scallops with asparagus tips. As a first enjoy the noodles and lobster then get ready to the trio of monkfish grid, slipper lobster and sea bass main course. How sweet will give you a good tart strawberry jam that does not disappoint the expectations raised by the cook at the beginning of lunch. Everything can be accompanied by a good sparkling wine "sur lie" dry and pleasantly bitter taste. Spending 25 eur each. Rating: 8.

The book of the week "The grammar of God Stories of loneliness and happiness" by Stefano Benni
A pleasant and interesting book that tells the life with bitter irony in all its reality mixed episodes sometimes funny and sometimes terrible. The protagonists of the stories seem to come directly from Benni stories Pirandello then descend to the solitude of the modern age.
From the Cover:
The "book of the world" according to Stefano Benni. A comedian, seething hellish stories. A circus of virtue and iniquity. The noise of men. The silence that queries all star, silent heroes and charlatans of survival or abuse. A greek philosopher has said: "Among the gods that men invented, the most generous is that combining many solitudes makes a day of joy".
Description from Feltrinelli.it :
A dog too faithful coming back like a boomerang always the boss who wants him to leave, a powerful manager ready to do anything to bring the Beatles for a concert, a fanciful and romantic-back on a balding area in the suburbs, an arrogant and irredeemable businessman, a friar who chooses silence in order to feel closer to God but is overcome by the beauty a mute, a wicked old woman devoured by envy and hatred are just some of the protagonists in this collection of short stories.
