This novel shows a certain similarity with the celebrated 'Cloud Atlas' by the British writer David Mitchell (also published in 2005): the different stories or parts of the novel each provide a different view on the previous story; but the version of Baricco is substantially better managed than that of Mitchell, both in style and in content.

In 'Questa Storia' Baricco is a very clever applicator of techniques, styles and registers of language (his Italian is very smooth and rather easy to understand to foreigners with a basic knowledge of the language), and he brings us a story that tells us something about how people cope with reality. Especially the short passage in which the feeble-minded half brother of the main character is speaking, is a stylistic gem; and also the evocation of the chaotic retreat of the Italian troops in the first world war (after the battle of Caporetto) can be classified among the better works about horrors of war.

Several times Baricco puts us on the wrong leg, and only gradually it becomes clear what the red line is in this story. I'm not going to say more about that than that it's about the crazy goal in life of a young Italian guy, a goal that has to do with his personal way to bring order into the chaos of existence. Baricco also succeeds in bringing beautiful personal portraits of his characters and the delicate interaction between them. Finally the whole novel is pervaded by a refined melancholic haze, which made me think of 'The Great Gatsby' by Scott Fitzgerald, because also that book is about (un)fulfilled dreams (and about fast cars!).
Cleverly done, Alessandro!
