Racalmuto Pedestrians: Sciascia and Memorial Statue

racalmuto pedestrians: And that's where he set his monument to the man on Racalmuto's main drag Via Garibaldi where Sciascia had been wont to mingle, an ink in the waters of community, according to Hamilton Spectator. The sidewalk is, in effect, part of the work. So when Giuseppe Agnello set about creating a memorial statue of Sciascia after the writer died in 1989, the renowned sculptor knew the street had to be part of it. Now in Racalmuto pedestrians pass by Sciascia in midstride, life-size, one hand in his pocket, the other holding a cigarette, with eyes that like the eyes in some paintings seem to follow you everywhere, ready to strike up a conversation. Still circulating in the traffic of his people. The writer, walking. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
