Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set on the isolated Neapolitan island of Procida, the story follows adolescent Arturo, who navigates life with only his absent father and a dog for company after his mother's death. His tranquil days of exploration and solitude are disrupted when his father introduces Nunziatella, a stunning sixteen-year-old bride. This encounter transforms Arturo's world, blending themes of adolescence, longing, and the complexities of family dynamics, all conveyed through a beautifully lyrical narrative that has garnered renewed interest in Morante's work.
