Quotes by Donatella Di Pietrantonio (?)

“Mia sorella. Come un fiore improbabile, cresciuto su un piccolo grumo di terra attaccato alla roccia. Da lei ho appreso la resistenza. Ora ci somigliamo meno nei tratti, ma é lo stesso il senso che troviamo in questo essere gettate nel mondo. Nella complicitá ci siamo salvate.”
― Donatella Di Pietrantonio, L'Arminuta

“I was an orphan with two living mothers.”

“Nel tempo ho perso anche quell'idea confusa di normalita' e oggi davvero ignoro che luogo sia una madre. Mi manca come puo' mancare la salute, un riparo, una certezza. E' un vuoto persistente, che conosco ma non supero. Gira la testa a guardarci dentro. Un paesaggio desolato che di notte toglie il sonno e fabbrica incubi nel poco che lascia. La sola madre che non ho mai perduto e' quella delle mie paure.”
― Donatella Di Pietrantonio, L'Arminuta
