Stories for the end of the world

Urgent, profound and topical, Loizzi’s tale is made up of fragments of tragic yet comic stories that leave room for hope-filled laughter.

Why is it that everyone is talking about the end of the world although no one seems to really want to talk about it?

And why is the environmental emergency closely related to migration?

Stories for the End of the World tells the crisis of our post-capitalist society, the crisis of every ordinary human being who has passed the fucking forty years, the crisis of the Mediterranean and the environmental crisis, trying to restore a small ounce of meaning to it all, And take, all of us together, a small step further.
