Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In a valley of Piedmont, at the foothills of the Alps, once prosperous, the wool industry that sustained it has relocated since the early 2000s, leaving the small towns desolate as the youth resign themselves to an enduring crisis. However, Andrea and Marina have dreams for the future. Andrea longs to abandon his bourgeois family and academic credentials to raise cattle on his grandfather's alpine farm. Marina, with her goddess-like appearance and voice, scours fairs and talent shows, determined to become a star. Convinced that her place is in the spotlight, she seeks to fill the void left by her father’s absence. Andrea and Marina experience both attraction and repulsion; despite the forces pulling them apart, a consuming passion has united them since adolescence, a fever they vow to extinguish. In this second novel, Silvia Avallone skillfully explores the fractures of society, the uncertainties of youth, and the drive to reclaim one's land and origins.
