Literary suggestions in Lombardy

Wandering around the region, among places, cities and events that have inspired great authors

Automatically translated

Lombardy has its own strong literary charge
It is rich in stories and places that have inspired and still inspire the pen of great writers.

From Manzoni's famous novel to great international writers to contemporary authors who were born in Lombardy and found inspiration for their works here.

The scenery changes, from the beauty of the lakes to metropolitan settings to the seemingly placid province , but in which strong passions flow underground.

What remains are anecdotes, descriptions and frescoes that tell of a living land that has given so much to literature and poetry. Happy reading!
