Abstract

Immigrants who settle in a new and unknown country find themselves between two cultures, so their identity will be forged over time. On the other hand, the children of immigrants, or second generation immigrants, must choose whether or not to adhere to the culture of the country in which they are. The works of the Italian author Igiaba Scego deal with the identity of an immigrant born in Italy from the lives of four young people.
