Il Salotto della Sfinge opens with a cocktail in the Loggia delle Sculture, followed by a conversation on the panoramic terrace between Professor Renato Esposito, a leading expert on the island of Capri, and former Naples magistrate Raffaele Marino, authors of L’isola dei suicidi imperfetti, and Anders de la Motte and Anette de la Motte, the award-winning Swedish husband-and-wife writing team behind a successful series of thrillers set in Italy, including Ett fall på Capri (A Murder on Capri), set against the backdrop of the island.

From real life to fiction: a conversation with Eugenia Carfora, principal of the Francesco Morano secondary school in Parco Verde, Caivano, and a leading figure in the fight against school dropout. Her story inspired the Rai 1 television series La preside, starring Luisa Ranieri.
The unease and difficulties of an increasingly enigmatic world, and its search for certainty, will be interpreted through a performance by Savanna Hanneryd, a Swedish dancer, choreographer and music producer. Her artistic practice focuses on krump, a street-dance style that emerged within the African American community of South Los Angeles in the early 2000s as a powerful form of non-violent expression.
