The materialization of Father Giuseppe (Paperback)

In this second edition, presented as a second series to the short story Found Alone (originally Trovato Solo), the eponymous fictional character materializes into the figure of Father Giuseppe, who becomes the main protagonist. Found Alone appears instead as a secondary character, featured only when the narrative context requires it.

What the author seeks to narrate metaphorically is the result of a series of complex events that generated a utopia. These situations are inspired by perceptions of the outside world but do not refer to specific individuals or real events; rather, they are solely the fruit of the imagination. For this reason, the stories should not be taken literally, as some were written without direct knowledge of the facts. At times, the author adopts a marginal style reminiscent of the Bolivian writer Víctor Hugo Viscarra; at others, the narrative draws on eroticism with an intensity equal to, or perhaps more provocative than, that of Charles Bukowski or the Cuban writer Pedro Juan Gutiérrez.

Some chapters are divided into brief sections which form the following short stories:

1. THIS IS HOW I LIVE MY INTERNET ADDICTION
2. JUST TO REMEMBER THAT...
3. THE HIDDEN DESIRE
4. WHICH WAS AFFECTION
5. THE FICTITIOUS CHARACTER
6. THE MATERIALIZATION OF FATHER GIUSEPPE
7. THE SCANDINAVIAN
8. FOUND ALONE
9. DAD KNEW NOTHING

The current edition has been revised, translated, and published in English for the first and final time under the title "The Materialization of Father Giuseppe". This work replaces the first edition titled "Trovato Solo in Giuseppe Sirugo". The text has been slightly modified and expanded with an additional short paragraph, with the intent of replacing the fictional character of Found Alone with the figure of Father Giuseppe.

Giuseppe "Sirugo (Turin, August 14, 1973 -) is a former reviewer and occasional biographer. He is an idealist and a supporter of "Freestyle & write."

The journey

After a period dedicated to reading, his passion for science communication and Latin American literature led him to consider writing. A period of work crisis and a decline in mental clarity convinced him to dedicate himself full-time to reading, studying, and finally, writing. Initially, he published his writings on blogs, then moved to Wikipedia, where he focused on translating and revising texts, sometimes using a pseudonym and other times remaining anonymous. During this period, he developed a unique writing style that has not changed over time and is derived from his intense and varied reading.

In 2002, he created the concept of "Freestyle & write" (non-profit), a creative process to overcome the conventions of traditional writing and draw directly from the stream of consciousness and authentic expression.

Translator and Reviewer

In 2003, Sirugo began writing on Myspace. His passion for science led him to register on the NASA website in 2009 and later on the European Space Agency (ESA) site, where he studied and translated programs like the SMOS and Proba-2 missions. He contributed to a weekly program titled: "Earth seen from space."

The presence of Trovato Solo

Trovato Solo is an imaginary, fictional character born from the concept of "Freestyle & write." He represents a manifestation of the author's unconscious, a utopian and ambiguous entity that challenges conventions. He is a non-existent entity, a product of pure imagination, with a random name and no references to real people or things. He is described as a "lie to be uprooted," a convenient tool for his creator's fantasy. Trovato Solo is in constant flight and always narrates from a single point of view.
