   Who is Edoardo Albinati?

   • Albinati enters the minds of the killers and descends into them; we are trapped in their amber, their humid, claustrophobic logic. You expect him to take an ax to all this, to let in reason, but he merges with the muck. 'To kill is an extreme way of making someone yours,' he blandly writes.
