are collected all the places where he spent his
childhood. This was his “nest” where
are collected all the rooms he lived. In his nest
he wrote, place of dream and happiness that he soon
had to abandon because of the familiar gives and
of the economical difficulties.In the boughs of
San Mauro you can find VILLA TORLONI, where his
family lived until he was administrator of the farm
