Rome, Paris, Marrakesh, Saint-Brieuc and New York, familiar decors of hotel rooms and prison cells... inmates, travesties, illegal immigrants relate their intimate relations with the writer and show how his words continue to echo. This film commemorates the centenary, in December 2010, of the birth of this genius of 20th century French literature.

The exemplary story of one of the most important pioneers of the Italian publishing industry who, with his vision, brought books and reading into the homes of all Italians.
