«Il cane sembra talvolta un’appendice dell’uomo. Gli sta stretto accanto, gli si strofina contro il polpaccio, non perde di vista un suo gesto, al punto che nemmeno con un calcio Adelmo Farandola riesce ad allontanarlo, perché quello uggiolando compie un paio di brevi svolte, per rielaborare il dolore, poi torna a strofinarsi sul fianco del suo compagno.»

Neve, cane, piede è un romanzo di Claudio Morandini pubblicato per la prima volta nel 2015. Nel 2016 è risultato vincitore del Premio Procida-Isola di Arturo-Elsa Morante[1]. È tradotto in diversi Paesi del mondo[2]. Nel 2021 viene pubblicata da Bompiani una nuova versione dell'opera, arricchita di nuovi capitoli.[3]

Trama

Neve, cane, piede è un romanzo di montagna, ambientato in un vallone delle Alpi che d’inverno è ricoperto dalla neve e d’estate resta lontano dagli itinerari turistici. Il protagonista, Adelmo Farandola, è un vecchio scorbutico e smemorato, che la solitudine e l'età hanno reso allucinato: accanto a lui, un cane petulante e chiacchierone gli fa da allegra compagnia, insieme con qualche altro animale selvatico, un giovane guardacaccia e i rumori dell'immensa vallata. La vita di Adelmo Farandola è scandita dai cambiamenti stagionali, in cui gli inverni sono lunghi e freddi. I due, Adelmo e il cane, non se la passano bene e spesso sono preda dei morsi della fame, costretti come sono a restare chiusi per giorni nella baita con la porta completamente sommersa dalla neve. Arrivata finalmente la primavera, durante il disgelo i due si imbattono in un piede umano. Da questa scoperta inizia la confusa indagine su quello che può essere accaduto al cadavere a cui appartiene quel piede, e nasce il sentimento di essere in qualche modo responsabile. E un desiderio incontenibile di fuga.
