FRESH WATER FOR FLOWERS Valérie Perrin

FRESH WATER FOR FLOWERS Valérie Perrin

Fresh water for flowers, almost a reminder.

Which has turned into a word of mouth extended to the point of conquering the ranking with advice from reader to reader. In fact, I read it thanks to Monica.

Only later I found the list of awards won: Prix Maison de la presse, the Prix Jules-Renard and the Prix des lecteurs du Livre de poche.

I opened it in the dark, not knowing what flowers to take care of, and I found that the cure was for myself.

The immediacy with which I thought how congenial could be the work that the narrator does, was as simple as when we finally realize something that had always been before our eyes but that until now we had never really looked at.

Wearing such a fitting idea of serenity, however, cannot be a foregone conclusion, as much as it is not certain that the starting point is comparable to lightness.

On the other hand, flowers are symbols of delicacy par excellence.
Flowers are beauty, but also fragility.
Flowers need light.
Flowers need heat.

I loved the backbone of this story, and perhaps for this reason, coming to the ramifications I felt a strong sense of annoyance. But that has done nothing but make it even more of a perfect metaphor.

If we think about it, changing the water is an action of renewal that aims, however, to perpetuate the same goal, and in fact in this book the changes have the characteristic of bringing back to the origin as in the most classic of closed circles, such as the seasons , which complete their cycle.

But flowers can also be born between concrete.

KING GIORGIO ARMANI ALSO WINS THE AUCTION IN MILAN

KING GIORGIO ARMANI ALSO WINS THE AUCTION IN MILAN

Milan can be described in so many ways, and each of them may seem outdated in short time as it is constantly evolving. Always in turmoil, the undisputed capital of fashion manages to express a sense of vitality and renewal even to the less caring. Among the innovations introduced, the auction launched for a prestigious space in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, was undoubtedly successful. Giorgio Armani Retail brand won after 24 bids of fifty thousand euros each, with three-minute lapses. The auction was held at 670.440 euros and ended with an annuale fee of 1.9 million euros .Armani group will show and sell his creations in  these 302 precious square meters for the next 18 years. The Administration declared that this income will bring benefits for the city and for the citizens, so this first auction for the spaces of the Galleria was a brand new success, while we are used to the victories of King Giorgio Armani so I take the opportunity to express my highest respect.
