Sommario/riassunto

Un viaggio alla ricerca di Atlantide, ma anche un viaggio nella memoria dell’autore, tra romanzi, cinema e fumetti, ricerche storiche e indagini scientifiche, miti, metafore e utopie. Per scoprire che, forse, Atlantide non va cercata nel passato, ma deve essere costruita nel futuro. (Fonte: editore)
