New B2/C1-Level Easy Reader – ‘Il bar’ – 25% Off This Week!

July 17, 2019 by Daniel

Buondì.

Did you know there’s a new B2/C1-level Italian ‘easy reader’ in our online shop?

This one is called ‘Il bar‘ and is by Francesca Colombo, author of the recent ‘Prometeo e la guerra dei titani‘.

That one was set in a high school and was centered around a Greek myth.

This one, in contrast, takes place in a bar, in Milan…

Il signor Mario gira la chiave nella serratura e solleva la serranda del Bar Ateneo. Il locale si trova davanti all’Università Statale nel centro di Milano. Il proprietario del vecchio bar, puntuale come ogni mattina, apre la porta di legno scricchiolante, indossa il grembiule e si aggiusta gli occhiali da miope sul nasone aquilino. Poi si dirige svelto a infornare i cornetti e a preparare la macchina del caffè.

Quando ha finalmente le mani libere, Mario si avvicina al calendario per eliminare la pagina del mese appena trascorso: febbraio. Ha una breve esitazione e prende tempo massaggiandosi i corti ricci grigiastri che, nonostante i suoi cinquantotto anni, resistono sul capoccione a forma d’uovo. Un respiro profondo per farsi coraggio dicendo a se stesso:

“Anche quest’anno è arrivato il primo marzo. Stiamo a vedere che diavolo succede”.

Check out the Free Sample Chapter (.pdf), which also contains a link to the audio for the entire story, available to listen to completely free online!
