50 Possibilities
The prodigies, experiments and miracles of Gustavo Adolfo Rol, or rather the expressions and manifestations of his possibilities as he called them, have been divided by the writer Franco Rol into 50 different categories. The following presents a selection for each category (3 on average) from my volume The Unbelievable Gustavo Adolfo Rol (2014) based on the second Italian edition of volume I of L'Uomo dell'Impossibile (an encyclopedic work which reached 10 volumes in 2024, the first 3 focused on phenomenology). The selections do not necessarily include the most impressive, but instead those sufficiently representative of the classes to which they belong.
