Straniero

Guridi offers a radical reinterpretation of the literary myth of Robinson Crusoe: he overturns Defoe’s narrative perspective by giving a voice to ‘Friday’. Through his eyes, we discover the stranger’s inability to listen, to learn, and to recognise the sacredness of the place and of the other.
A work that prompts profound reflection on the impact of colonialism and on our perception of the world and of others.

Themes: colonialism, respect, otherness, spiritual ecology.
