biblioThis is Mediterranea “Sea Library“.

Here you can find our beloved books, that made us dream in some moments. But they are also your books, those of your evenings. Let us know the ones that are missing from this list.

 

We’ll read and add them, if we like them.
The goal, in these five years, is ambitious: to put together a library where nothing that should be here will be missing. A library dedicated to the sea. To all of us.
