A writer from the pack: Mario Martinelli
of Massimiliano Floriani
was an afternoon without the sun actually was amused to come out in bursts, but nothing important on that day we wanted to offer gray. I arrived at Obra in Vallarsa in the mid-afternoon and were greeted by a neighbor of Mario: "I continue, el ve spectrum." A good cup of coffee made from Florence, his wife also a writer, and a cigarette in the other "Bear Mario" begins to trust us, she begins to unlock the mouth and to offer sincere words.
Son of the early 60s, wandering and wandering for years around the world. He lived in Rovereto, but as a child took refuge for a time of year Vallarsa by his grandparents in the house where he now lives, there has learned the authenticity of the "life Montanina," as he calls it, took the secrets of prehistoric interior - reversed the needs of man chased by scores of frenzied life of a balance between fatigue in the country and continued reflection.
In 1998, with the desire to escape, she had moved at Obra in the house of his maternal grandparents, his mother was a Broz (and tells us that a first cousin of the grandfather was Broz Tito, the famous dictator juogoslavo). He can not stay in the city, is a suit too tight, you've seen a movie, a "limited freedom." And here at the foot of mountains sacred works, or better wake up very soon and we should also take a cappuccino at the bar, but its main activity is the montagnaterapia. Between a visit to the goats, which is very affectionate, a ride in the meadows and woods, returning home to write in the afternoon, the days they go in peace and serenity that only the mountain that has managed to escape from modernization can bring.
In September 2004, unfortunately missed the forces, and began a physical decline portatogli by a terrible disease. But Mario climbed fiercely in the mountains with only his head, he could not stay away from her mountains, eternal and peaceful. And there, Mario ran, ran into new paths and woods, his mind wandered and the smell of the world was in his hands, because this kind of meditation can save a man. This too stubborn relationship with nature, which is of course with themselves, can trarti saved from perpetual illness. Mario has the instinct to rebel, then as it is right that belongs to him, he rebels when life is clearly impaired, rebels in the world is against a man, outside the choir. A lover of history, looking for relics of World War Obra in the surrounding area and has a house full! All that saved him, but certainly the doctors in Innsbruck they did: after a major operation and still managed to save his life now in a sort of votive nature. In 2005 he began
to publish stories. The start was given by the encounter with the writer Mauro Corona in January 2004, with whom he established a "rustic friendly relations." Corona urged him to write giving him a Moleskine (typical pocket book writers to mark impressions, notes), saying: "Go home and fill it." It is now at an altitude of ten small books published, a pleasure to read, stories of nature and deep passion for the land to which we belong, we are involved in visceral way in this game shares between land and human generations. And Mario told us snippets of real life, people sometimes exist, sometimes stereotyped, reflections on the actions of life in the mountains, where the findings are certainly the most original and profound than those that can take a writer outside his window in a chaotic city center.
This man has nothing special, or is very special. It depends on what perspective you see it depends on if the mountain is special for us or not, because they are part of the mountain, part of the landscape. He has really "taken off the superfluous", he feels within himself the strength to get existence even when just walking in the woods, took away all thoughts accident that leaves you on the city. It is a bold attempt to turn, we should all follow him in this rebellion Montanina.
