Without flashes of genius our species could not be called Homo sapiens. Humans would be a victim
of bad weather, parasites and predators. Not even the world would be the same. There would not be
electricity, computers, TV, books, Facebook, underwear, french fries ...
We would not even have The Iliad and The Odyssey, Leonardo’s Mona Lisa, the Beatles’ music and
Picasso’s Guernica. Yes, because not only science and technology, but also painting, music, cinema and
poetry live by flashes of genius.
Luca Novelli is your guide on a fantastic journey over 10,000 years of history, studded with
brilliant ideas that have changed the course of time.

For the first time ever, the story of The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery has been adapted
into the series of Carte in Tavola. The author is Fabrizio Silei, winner of the Andersen Prize in Italy in 2012
and in 2014, and nominated for the Strega Ragazzi prize in 2018.
The illustrations are by Andrea Rivola, winner of the Premio Gigante delle Langhe in 2015 for his
work entitled Il cammino dei diritti and published by Fatatrac.
Silei’s text maintains the magic of the original story while infusing it with new energy via his original
style.
