abstract
The volume collects the biographical testimony of Fabio Matteini who, starting from the ’60s, undertook an import activity of Chinese handcra products with the aim of supporting the political and cultural initiative of the Edizioni Oriente of Milan, the main center for the spread of Maoism in Italy. The testimony is accompanied by a prefatory essay by Gilda Zazzara on Matteini work culture and by a selection of photographs taken by the author during the years of the Cultural Revolution, chosen and introduced by Silvia Calamandrei.
