Summary:
In the Fall Winter 24-25 issue which closes the fifteenth anniversary celebration of ''Cura', ''Coming of Age'' is a plural and multifaceted story of growth, discovery, affirmation, defeat and corruption, that recounts the ambiguities of the present time, the sense of loss of illusions, trapped in a reality in front of which one is both an adult and a child, corrupt and innocent, cynical and curious. A limbo between hope and reality places events in which we witness a whole that unfolds at once inside and outside of us. Propelled into such ambiguity—neither past nor future—we are overwhelmed by a flow of things and events, a changing and metamorphic landscape, which translates the upheavals of a new awareness and a new age.
