Cea mai cunoscută carte a Oliviei Laing, Orașul solitar este un text radiant despre singurătate, mecanismele care o provoacă și despre cum ne putem doza resursele interioare pentru a-i face față.

Se Pansa è stato un giornalista stimato per la sua onestà, un giornalista ‘democratico e di sinistra’, se i suoi scritti sulla Resistenza gli hanno procurato persino il riconoscimento di Grande Ufficiale della Repubblica da parte del presidente Ciampi, come è possibile che, per aver completato la verità sul ‘biennio fatale 1943-45’, si sia trasformato in un falsario o, per i suoi peggiori detrattori, nientemeno che in un fascista?”
