«ADESSO TU MI DICI COSA VUOI FARE DI ME». TIMIRA. ROMANZO METICCIO E L’IPERMODERNO ITALIANO
«Now you tell me what you want to do about me». Timira. Romanzo Meticcio and the Italian Hypermodernity

Summary/Abstract: Starting from the intellectual posture assumed by the authors of the text and contextualizing the formal choices used in the writing, this essay aims to analyze Timira. Romanzo meticcio by Wu Ming 2 and Antar Mohamed in the literary context of hypermodernity. For the fact that compositional and modal strategies adopted in Timira are what most distinguished the text, the main purpose I have assumed to pursue is arriving at an analysis focused on them. In order to do this, in this essay I will discuss: the relations between Wu Ming’s and Luther Blissett’s cultural experiences; the particularity of Wu Ming’s intellectual positions and their application in narrative; the reasons and rhetorical tools which allow to think about Timira as an hypermodern literary work.
