The dog in 100 writers
Yesterday afternoon, Thursday 12 February 2026, the Press Room of the Chamber of Deputies, on the initiative of the Honourable Marco Cerreto, hosted the presentation of “Cave Canem. The dog in 100 writers”, the new book by Happy Modica.
New perspectives
During the event, Pietro Pietrafesa, Secretary General of the UNA Foundation, emphasized the importance of promoting readings that look at hunting from ever-new perspectives, freeing it from simplifications and clichés.
Relationship between dog and man
Modica's book conveys the pleasure of hunting through the relationship between man and dog during a hunt, retracing the pages of literature that have best described the symbiotic and ancestral nature of this bond (source: UNA Foundation).
