4 novembre 66 - L'alluvione che fu
Biblioteca Comunale E. Balducci, Piazza Matteotti n. 4, Tavarnelle Val di Pesa
Organised by Comune di Barberino Tavarnelle
Sixty years after the Florence flood of 4 November 1966, the Biblioteca Comunale E. Balducci in Tavarnelle Val di Pesa hosts the reading "4 novembre 66 - L'alluvione che fu", curated by Tiziana Giuliani. The text is freely adapted from the book "Quando gli altri piegano le ginocchia" by Gino Cacace and retraces the drama and solidarity of those days. A public meeting will follow: the witnesses of Barberino Tavarnelle recount their role in saving the flooded books. Meanwhile, the Comune is collecting the voices of the pupils of the time who then lived in the area. The initiative is promoted by the Comune di Barberino Tavarnelle with the Associazione Nazionale dei Vigili del Fuoco and is part of a programme of two events to keep the memory alive and reflect on hydrogeological prevention and safety.
Time: 17:30 Admission: free Programme: reading by and with Tiziana Giuliani, freely adapted from "Quando gli altri piegano le ginocchia" by Gino Cacace; followed by a public meeting with the memories of the witnesses of Barberino Tavarnelle who took part in saving the flooded books In collaboration with: Associazione Nazionale dei Vigili del Fuoco Contacts: Comune di Barberino Tavarnelle, tel. 055 8052301
