With concerts, readings and exhibitions, the Italian island of Procida steps out of the shadow of its famous sisters Capri and Ischia.
Spiaggia della Lingua on Procida, 6.45 a.m., on a May morning. The haze of the previous night still hangs over the bay. The sand is cold, the sea is calm, the outlines of the mainland appear on the horizon with the protruding cone of Vesuvius. A small group of islanders and foreigners has gathered here at the crack of dawn.
