«Oceano mare» is the novel by Alessandro Baricco, published by Rizzoli in paperback (240 pages, in Italian).
In a remote hotel by the sea, several people marked by the ocean meet. The narration evokes a shipwreck and the drifting of its survivors, an extreme episode where cruelty and pity coexist. The sea becomes voice and witness to those fates; it can be read as a suspense story, a prose poem or an adventure novel.
Written in Italian, the novel was first published in 1993 and received the Premio Letterario Viareggio Rèpaci. This 1998 edition was published by Rizzoli.
A read for fans of literary fiction, magical realism and twentieth-century Italian literature.
Alessandro Baricco is an Italian writer, director and performer. His novels have been translated into a number of languages.
