It will be something that I was attacked as a child, the nostalgia evoked by the Neapolitan songs that appealed so much to my mother, his humanity as exhibited theatrically – said Silver – Thank Kolibrì that the association has set up an exhibition at the Castel dell’Ovo and the recent Comicon, where I was president of the jury, I had the opportunity to stay in Naples after a long absence and back to the warmth and the sound of this wonderful city to which they are bound by mysterious roots. I’m already looking for an excuse to go back”.
