2018Tutto sommato è meglio non abortire. Lo dimostrano qui le testimonianze di tante donne che, aiutate dai centri di aiuto alla vita (CAV) ma soprattutto dal proprio coraggio, hanno deciso di proseguire la gravidanza. E lo dimostra anche lo sconfinato rammarico di altre donne che hanno scelto (o sono state costrette a scegliere) l'aborto. Qui scorrono storie e opinioni di personaggi famosi, come Ornella Vanoni, Alexia e Nek, oltre a Celentano, Andrea Bocelli e a un insospettabile Eminem; e poi registi come Pupi Avati e Franco Zeffirelli; femministe storiche (Lella Costa, Alessandra Kustermann), insieme con la poetessa Alda Merini. Questo libro - al tempo stesso militante ed ecumenico - nasce dalla consapevolezza che ogni vita «abbia in sé la propria giustificazione». Di qui l'idea suggerita da Claudio Magris nella prefazione: «guai a far dipendere il diritto dell'individuo alla sopravvivenza dall'amore o dall'affetto che altri hanno per lui o, peggio ancora, dalle sue capacità e dalle sue prestazioni». Presentazione di Claudio Magris. Postfazione di Marina Casini. Curatori: Gianni Mussini. Prefazione: Marina Casini, Claudio Magris.
