"Meme Scianca" is the story of a father who shares his memories of the first twelve years of his life with his children. Calasso paints a picture of times that are already distant for younger generations – the first glimmers of war, the arrest of his father as an anti-fascist, games and books that filled the post-war reality. An intimate journey through Florence, separated from the rest of Italy, full of literary and musical inspirations.

"Bobi," on the other hand, is the story of Robert Bazlen, a writer and publicist who was Calasso's mentor and friend. Bazlen was a co-founder of the Adelphi publishing house, where Calasso spent almost his entire life, later becoming its owner. A touching portrait of a man who had a huge impact on Calasso's life and work.
