The Exodus Ferrara is a historical novel set in Ferrara. A love story is born between a young Jewish girl: Maria, and a young doctor, shortly before and during the Second World War, during historical events now forgotten: the deportations of relatives, loneliness, hunger, shootings, escape into campaign, the liberation of Ferrara, etc .... In cycling for medical visits to Ferrara, the sensations of the doctor and reflections on history: of the Estensi, of Lucrezia Borgia, of the influence of the Jewish people on the city. The history of medieval Ferrara, the Renaissance are mixed with the history of the Second World War, but the memory is short and history risks disappearing, losing an enormous human and cultural heritage. Commemorating the day of the Holocaust, 27 / January / 2020 is not enough. We must promote among young people the knowledge of the merits of Judaism strongly linked to Italy and in particular to Ferrara.
