Il Ponte sulla Dora is a new indie bookstore: located in Torino, opened today at 6 am and founded by Rocco Pinto. Before opening the bookstore, Rocco Pinto worked in other bookstores: he dedicated his life to Torre di Abele. Recently, he has been working with Giuseppe Laterza and Antonio Sellerio, to collect 50 thousand sign for a new law to promote reading.
Il Ponte sulla Dora seems an intriguing case: _ Rocco cares to underline the importance of the readers: he ordered the titles that readers suggested. _ it opened at 6 a.m. :
"We wanted to check if people come out at six a.m. only to buy an iPhone. We gladly found out that it isn't so."
