Abstract

  In Nane Oca’s world, «tutto sembra inventato, ma tutto è vero, […] solo che è sotto falso nome». The paper is a detailed guide or baedecker to Nane Oca’s geography across the three ‘acts’ of the trilogy. ‘Fantastic’ places, which constitute the set of the story, actually represent the poetical transfiguration, through imagination, of a real, feasible geography, which is here precisely retraced.
