Il castello dei destini incrociati is a work of experimental fiction by Italo Calvino, first published in 1973. It unites two narrative sequences, The Castle and The Tavern, where mute travelers tell their stories through the arrangement of Tarot cards instead of words. Calvino explores the limits and possibilities of combinatory literature, merging visual symbolism with narrative structure. The text reflects on fate, chance, and interpretation, turning storytelling into a labyrinth of possible meanings. This edition, illustrated with reproductions of tarot cards, demonstrates Calvino’s interest in semiotics, allegory, and the mechanics of narrative itself within the context of 20th-century Italian literature.
