It is the year in which the sovranist, anti-European, right wing Lega party is elected to office in Italy and cracks down on immigration. Montini boards a small boat and lets himself drift out onto the Mediterranean Sea. From there he sings – off key – a traditional Sardinian dirge: “Anninia Anninia”. It’s a lullaby to the empty cradle of a deceased infant.

from MONTINI’S ASYNCHRONICITIES By Lorenzo Bernini, Translated from Italian by Julia Heim
