When 26-year old Crito di Volta is released after 10 years of psychiatric institutionalization, he develops and launches Motarism, a new socio-political and psycho-spiritual movement through which he de-institutionalizes, and eventually reconnects with, all of humanity. Called "a major accomplishment of Literature" and "the Howl of the 21st century," Marc di Saverio's Crito di Volta is a poetic manifesto on mental illness, faith and urban geography, and a revolt against the platitudes of contemporary Western society.
