Bosica Vincent, the author
-
Vincenzo Bosica (Pescara, 1977) is a young artist whose rich and multifaceted creativity often leads him to investigate aspects of life far che banali. Sostenuto da un percorso di studi scientifici e filosofici, è attratto da quanto è misterioso, eccentrico e indecifrabile; dagli sviluppi spesso straordinari a cui potranno condurre le scoperte scientifiche; dalla direzione che prenderà il futuro; da quanto e come l'uomo sarà capace di adattarvisi. Il suo primo racconto, "Capsule" ("IF-Insolito e Fantastico", n. 2/2009), è quasi un saggio sulla scienza moderna. declinato con ironia e uno stile personalissimo, che gli giova grandi consensi di pubblico e di critica. "Irregolare" è il suo primo romanzo, ambientato in un futuro non troppo distante e non troppo inverosimile.
