Description
After the death of the old Antonio Morro, the forest lands were divided between the retired colonel Sebastiano Procolo and Benvenuto, a twelve-year-old boy. But the minor youth received a much larger share of the land. Meanwhile, the strip of the Old Forest bequeathed to the colonel—where he had wanted to start logging—turned out to be protected.
However, soon the irritated colonel learns that in the Old Forest’s cave lives Matteo’s wind—a spirit imprisoned by forest spirits for his wild temper and destructive power. The wind promises to obey completely whoever frees it.
The whimsical and elegant “Riddle of the Old Forest,” with its light and sad tone, seems at first glance to belong to the genre of a literary fairy tale for adults. But behind the plain imitation of a folk legend lies a deep parable about how deadly it is for humans to oppose nature.
