I am looking for the original Italian text of Italo Calvino’s Cibernetica e fantasmi. Appunti sulla narrativa come processo combinatorio. So far, I only managed to find its English translation, “Cybernetics and Ghosts”.
Can someone help me find it?

@tommi found it! I got an Italian version online with its English translation at https://www.page-turner.com/en/book-demo-viewer/36/, then I started to look for full sentences to get actual citations/excerpts. Stumbled on this: http://www.adrianopiacentini.it/cibernetica-e-fantasmi.html that in addition to a few quotes has references pointing to “Saggi 1945-1985”. Double checking on Google books seems to show a few hits: https://books.google.co.uk/books?redir_esc=y&id=mdxWAAAAYAAJ&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=Cibernetica+e+fantasmi
At this point, it’s just a matter of getting the book. LMK if you need help finding it 🤗
@uc This one is a commentary by another author…
