IL CIELO SOPRA VARRAMISTA
AUTOBIOGRAFIA DI UNA VESPA
Il cielo sopra Varramista delicately enters into the essence of the Piaggio phenomenon through citations, testimonies, personal memories: it is not a story of facts, it is a story that begins through the facts inside the factory and the lives of workers and employees, beginning with Enrico Piaggio and Corradino D'Ascanio and arriving at the present day, passing through the unfortunately brief period led by Giovanni Alberto Agnelli.
Piaggio and Vespa have put Pontedera and Valdera on the map of the world: a result achieved through farsightedness, visible and obscure work, perseverance, and the awareness that they have all what is required to earn a prominent place in industry and society.
Lando Testi and Giuseppe Cecconi, the authors, a piaggista and a writer, contemplate the blue that kisses the historic estate (Piaggio's villa in Varramista), and continue to dream a clear, clean, bright sky.
A work therefore written by four hands that make the story unexpected and compelling. Episodes unknown to most people come to light, while many well-known facts are reinterpreted in a poetic way.
Everyone can recognise themselves in this epic of Piaggio, the honour and pride of Pontedera.
