Annotation

Giuseppe Sirugo (Turin, August 14, 1973 -) is a former reviewer and occasional biographer. He is an idealist and advocate of "Freestyle & Write": created in 2002, the nonprofit Freestyle & Write concept is a creative process aimed at transcending the conventions of traditional writing and drawing directly from stream of consciousness and authentic expression.
After a period dedicated to reading, his passion for popular science and Latin American literature led him to consider writing. For Sirugo, writing is a pastime, thanks to the variety of books he read.

His works, such as the translation of the volume "Found Alone", comprising the respective chapters "Found Alone", "Just for...", "The Hidden Desire" (from the original title Trovato Solo), are classified as Short Fiction. This format suggests that the characters are not developed over the course of hundreds of pages as in a novel, but are presented through intense situations or key moments of their lives.

The characters often serve to explore a specific central theme, such as the one suggested by all three chapters, with a particular focus on their psychological profile or their reaction to events. The very name of the translation series "Documents-Network. Volume N° 1 - Traduzioni di Trovato Solo" suggests a series of narratives that could deal with Fragmented Lives or Separate Voices, where the characters might be presented as "documents" or accounts of individual experiences, which collectively form a network or a broader thematic framework.
The Narrative is focused on brief studies of individuals, emotions, or singular events, rather than on long adventures. In summary, the characters of Giuseppe Sirugo are most likely figures defined by a psychological analysis or an emotional state explored in a concise and direct manner. 

Presence of FOUND aLONE
Found Alone, from its Italian translation Trovato Solo, is a fictional character created by Giuseppe Sirugo. This character emerged as a consequence of the concept of Freestyle & write, a creative process developed by Sirugo.
Trovato Solo seems to be a manifestation of the author's unconscious, embodying a utopian and ambiguous entity that defies conventions. The character insinuated himself into the writer's life for a few years and then dissipated into nothingness from March 11, 2020. Found Alone can be seen as an alter ego of Giuseppe Sirugo, symbolizing unconditional creativity and freedom of expression.

The appearance of PADRE GIUSEPPE
The appearance of Father Giuseppe begins at the end of March 2020, shortly after the disappearance of Trovato Solo, before he emerges with a distinct identity around mid-2025. Father Giuseppe’s role is not clear; it remains ambiguous, somewhere between that of a writer, an observer, or a mere supporting character. His philosophy of life does not stem from a spiritual path, but rather from the experience of the streets and excessive reading: his figure seems to inherit the melancholic introspection of his predecessor, Trovato Solo.
Despite appearances, Father Giuseppe is not a religious man, but an individual with an enigmatic and wise demeanor. His wisdom does not derive from a spiritual belief, but rather from life experience and a deep attitude toward introspection.

Giuseppe Sirugo is an advocate of Authentic Latin American Philosophy (also known as the Philosophy of Emancipation), a current of thought whose central premise is the necessity of developing an original and universal philosophical reflection that is rooted in the historical and cultural reality of Latin America. Through his book Lo que es un modelo de filosofía latinoamericana, Sirugo aligns himself with the thesis of thinkers such as Leopoldo Zea, arguing that the continent's philosophy must overcome the mere imitation of European models.
