Our Xmas story!


At Christmas the class had to read the story "The Case for the Defence" by Graham Greene, one of the most widely read English novelist and short story writer of the 20th-century who was born in 1904 and died in 1991.


Some students have imagined to be reporters for the school's magazine and have written their own articles.
One of them is Francesco Viliani

A STRANGE CASE, A STRANGE MURDER

One dead, four witnesses and a killer: these are the fundamental elements that go around this strange case. It was a long trial that finished with no sentences or guilty.

In Northwood Street it was found a corpse of a woman, but also after a long questioning, the suspected killer was acquitted for lack of evidence. Just a waste of time!!!

But the most strange thing is that at the end of the trial, the suspected man had been pushed onto the street while a bus was passing by, and he died.

Justice?! Destiny?! One thing is sure: all the four witnesses will not sleep easy.

Francesco Viliani
