The presentation of the book by Pietro Perone, journalist and editor-in-chief of the Mattino, entitled: "Pino Daniele. Napoli e l'anima della musica, dal mascalzone latino a Giògiò" (San Paolo Editions).
It is a book that speaks not only of Pino Daniele ten years after his untimely death, but of the city that the singer-songwriter narrated in its chiaroscuro. The Naples of yesterday, the one that reunited on the evening of 19 September 1981 with Pino and his band in Piazza Plebiscito, for the dream of a change that is still being chased today, and the Naples of today, the one that walks on two tracks: one is the beautiful carpet of tourism and the other the dirty pavement of truth that includes young people who kill their peers.
"It is not a festive book, explained the author - the idea of writing this book was born on 31 August 2023, when the news arrived at the editorial office that Giovanbattista Cutolo, 24, a musician and a student at the San Pietro a Maiella conservatory, had been killed. The same conservatory that Pino would have liked to attend, which he later failed to enrol in because the aunts who raised him convinced him that it was better to seek a permanent place by enrolling in accountancy. I asked myself: can Naples, where a boy who lived only on music was killed, still be the city of Pino Daniele? And I searched for the answers by picking up the verses of Pino's songs and there in those songs I found all the answers: there are continuous social messages, secular prayers for Naples to rise again. Pino's verses are more relevant today than ever, but while I was doing this work three other boys were killed: Emanuele, Santo, Arcangelo. The initial question became a desperate cry that is present in the book, but there is also the hope given by Pino and his verses".
