New B2/C1-Level Easy Reader: Prometeo e la guerra dei titani

Buondì.

I’ve been suffering from ‘mouse elbow’ (which is like tennis elbow but with whiskers) and so need to go easy on the typing / touch-pad use.

Hence just a quick one today, to let you know that we have a new B2/C1-level Italian ‘easy reader’.

This one is called ‘Prometeo e la guerra dei titani‘ and is by a first-time writer, Francesca Colombo.

She’s an Italian teacher, living in Spain I think, and is very prolific (no elbow issues, clearly).

In fact, I have another five of her stories in the pipeline waiting to be published, all higher-level (so I hope you like this one!)

What’s it about then?

Well Prometheus, obviously, who’s a character from a Greek myth.

If you don’t already know the story, hold off checking it out on Wikipedia for a while.

Instead, you might enjoy learning about it together with a class of fifth-year Italian high school students.

And you wouldn’t want to ruin the ending, would you?

Un altro giovedì di gennaio al liceo classico Parini di Milano. E’ passato da poco mezzogiorno e alla quarta ora la 5C ha greco: la lezione sembra essere infinita…

But wait! What’s that the teacher’s saying?

“Sapete che secondo il mito greco nella notte dei tempi si combatte una terribile guerra tra immortali? L’obiettivo della guerra è il dominio dell’intero universo.”

Sounds interesting?
