Riccardo Mannerini - "Eroina I - II - III" (1967) - Typescripts - Private, social and existential verses.

On display are the typescripts of "Eroina", one of Riccardo Mannerini's best-known poems, here in its original three parts which the great Genoese poet wrote and then gave to Fabrizio De André and which were subsequently revisited and their metric structure modified by Faber to become "Il cantico dei drogati", a break through text for the time included in the first concept album of the singer-songwriter "Tutti morimmo a stento" (1968).
