This is where people come together. I thought of the Classics: they always portrayed the life they were living – and the eternal myth…” These lines appear in Modern Life and the Eternal Myth by Fausto Pirandello, the acclaimed painter and son of Nobel Prize-winning playwright Luigi Pirandello, originally from Agrigento.
