"The Fate of Fausto" plunges readers into the darkly humorous and ultimately poignant tale of Fausto, an insatiably greedy and arrogant industrialist who believes he can own anything and everything. From a small fishing boat to the very mountains themselves, Fausto relentlessly acquires, until he encounters the last untouched thing: the sea. This beautifully illustrated fable explores the consequences of unchecked ambition and humanity's destructive impact on nature, as Fausto's relentless pursuit of ownership inevitably leads to a powerful, unexpected, and ultimately humbling confrontation with the forces he seeks to control.
