Rossella Casini e una giovane studentessa di Psicologia dellUniversita di Firenze, figlia unica cresciuta in una famiglia semplice e rispettabile. La madre, una piccola commerciante, e il padre, ormai in pensione, le hanno garantito una vita tranquilla fatta di studio ed esperienze giovanili. Tutto cambia nel novembre del 1977 quando Rossella conosce Francesco Frisina, un ragazzo calabrese originario della Piana di Gioia Tauro. Francesco e un giovane affascinante, deciso e sincero, e tra i due nasce subito una forte intesa. Lestate successiva Rossella decide di seguirlo a Palmi, in Calabria, per conoscere la sua famiglia. Laccoglienza dei Frisina sembra calorosa, ma dietro quellapparente normalita si nasconde una realta ben diversa: i Frisina sono legati alla potente cosca dei Gallico, in guerra aperta con i Condello. Nonostante il pericolo crescente, Rossella decide di restare accanto a Francesco, convinta, addirittura, che il loro amore possa mettere fine al ciclo di violenza. La sua speranza si trasforma pero in una tragica illusione: il 22 febbraio 1981 Rossella sparisce nel nulla dopo aver annunciato telefonicamente al padre lintenzione di tornare a casa. Da quel momento, nessuno la rivedra mai piu. Anche se il suo corpo non e mai stato ritrovato, lo Stato italiano ha riconosciuto Rossella Casini come vittima innocente di ndrangheta, e il suo nome oggi e ricordato in scuole, strade e luoghi pubblici. Con Lamore mio non muore, Roberto Saviano ci consegna un romanzo intenso e drammatico, in cui la vicenda di Rossella Casini diventa un emblema vivido e struggente di un amore capace di sfidare la violenza, rivelandosi lunica vera possibilita di verita e di senso, una forza che non si spegne mai.

De milagres fantasiosos Disque Compostela naceu cando Paio, o eremita, foi guiado por unhas luminarias misteriosas ata a tumba do apóstolo Santiago. De aí o nome de Campus Stellae. E tamén disque o rei Afonso II foi o primeiro peregrino da historia. E que comezou asi unha afluencia masiva de camiñantes que non cesou ata os nosos dias. Unha incrible sucesion de milagres, non e? Pois lamento dicir que todo isto e mentira. Unha lenda, mais nada. Unha fantasia. A Compostela primixenia Nos primeiros tempos, ao redor dun sepulcro sen identificar non habia mais nada que un burgo modesto e unha pequena igrexa. O propio Vaticano desmentiu que esa puidese ser a tumba de Iacobus, e mesmo algun bispo chegou a ser excomungado por defender esa tese. Un milagre tanxible E no ano 1068 cando nace Diego. El fixo de Compostela un arcebispado, e creou a catedral mais fastosa do mundo. El coroou reis e entronizou papas, ordenou escribir os codices mais marabillosos e puxo a insignificante Compostela a altura de Roma e de Xerusalen. El creou o Camiño de Santiago, e en base a el forxou Europa. Esta e a sua historia, e e real. Isto e o que el construiu no seculo do milagre. Ata agora coñecias a lenda. Agora has descubrir a verdade.
