Description

Gli enigmi insoluti, i misteri oscuri e i delitti irrisolti della capitale italiana dell’esoterismo Torino è una città densa di contraddizioni. Nelle sue strade all’apparenza piane e tranquille, il bianco e il nero, il bene e il male, la luce e l’ombra si mescolano fino a confondersi. Gli elementi segreti che la caratterizzano si nascondono agli occhi di chi non la conosce a fondo. L’aura magica che da sempre la pervade si perde nel silenzio dettato dalle regole d’oro degli antichi libri di magia. Questa unicità energetica unita all’elemento della segretezza che, come recitano i grimoires, i manoscritti esoterici medievali, deve contraddistinguere il lavoro di coloro che operano in senso cosmico, ha fatto sì che, nei secoli, Torino si sia affermata come Capitale dell’esoterismo italiano. Parallelamente si è consolidata una gran quantità di luoghi comuni che confondono la figura del mago con quella del ciarlatano, sedute spiritiche e una preoccupante diffusione di “sette sataniche” con la ricerca di una comunione cosmica. Laura Fezia ci accompagna in una escursione tra sacro e profano, alchimia e spiritismo, cronaca gialla e nera, nei luoghi più insoliti ed enigmatici della città piemontese, dove i crimini assumono connotazioni magiche e le storie parlano quasi sempre il linguaggio dell’arcano...Crocevia simbolico tra magia bianca e magia nera, a Torino tutto può accadere...Tra gli argomenti insoliti e misteriosi:Il portale dello zodiacoLe signore dell’occultoLuigia Sola e la misoginia di LombrosoUna “liaison dangereuse” nella Torino degli anni TrentaIl diavolo in via GradiscaSerial killer a TorinoTutti in fila al freddo per vedere leiUn re dai modi poco regaliUn capo indiano a spasso per il centroIl Buddha a Porta PilaLaura Feziaè nata a Torino, dove vive e lavora.
