"A moth?" "Not a moth, a figurehead!" "What is a figurehead?" "Ancient sailors carved a human figure on the bow of the ships, and it had the task to protect them. At the beginning they were only enormous eyes, that allowed the ship to see the route. Then they transformed them in woman divinity: beautiful women, with hypnotic look, able to bewitch the waves and to frighten the enemies."
from the book "" by Alessandro D'Avenia
