Un vecchio criminale di guerra vive con sua figlia, divisa tra la repulsione e il dovere di accudire. Lui è convinto di avere per unico torto la sconfitta.

"Questo breve e intenso primo libro di Erri De Luca porta già impressi in ogni frase - mi sembra - i segni di un vero scrittore: un tono di voce che appena si coglie diventa inconfondibile, e la integrità di uno sguardo che sa mettere nel giusto fuoco i pensieri e i sentimenti. Qui la memoria non è consolazione, ma è un dramma, e il tempo gioca un suo gioco crudele stabilendo distanze insormontabili tra chi narra e la materia del proprio racconto. Una luce bianca e densa come quella che filtra da nuvole alte bagna queste pagine.

"Mosè, primo alpinista, è in cima al Sinai. Inizia così il suo corpo a corpo con la più potente manifestazione della divinità.". Erri De Luca racconta l'eroe Mosè con la grazia del grande scrittore che reimmagina, attraverso la Scrittura, la grandezza sofferente dell'uomo alla guida di un popolo in fuga. "E disse": con questo verbo la divinità crea e disfa, benedice e annulla. Dal Sinai che scatarra esplosioni e fiamme, vengono scandite le sillabe su pietra di alleanza. Nell'impeto di un'ora di entusiasmo un popolo di servi appena liberati si sobbarca di loro.

Quella che leggerete è una storia piccola, quasi invisibile. È la storia della mia amicizia con il mio maestro, Giovanni Testori (1923-1993). Se la propongo ai lettori è per due ragioni: la prima è perché essa apre una finestra su uno dei rapporti fondamentali che legano le persone tra loro, il rapporto maestro-discepolo. La seconda è perché Giovanni Testori si è situato in controtendenza rispetto alla grande maggioranza degli intellettuali del suo tempo, che rifuggivano l'idea di far da maestri a qualcuno.
