Delirium

Questa serie distopica esplora un mondo in cui l'amore è considerato una malattia pericolosa, eradicata sistematicamente da un governo autoritario attraverso procedure obbligatorie. I giovani protagonisti sono destinati a sottoporsi a questa 'cura', concepita per garantire un'esistenza sicura e prevedibile. Tuttavia, la narrazione si concentra su una giovane donna che inizia a mettere in discussione questa sterilità emotiva imposta quando si innamora inaspettatamente. La sua lotta tra la conformità sociale e i profondi rischi della connessione autentica costituisce il cuore di questa avvincente e romantica saga.

    Ninety-five days, and then I’ll be safe. I wonder whether the procedure will hurt. I want to get it over with. It’s hard to be patient. It’s hard not to be afraid while I’m still uncured, though so far the deliria hasn’t touched me yet. Still, I worry. They say that in the old days, love drove people to madness. The deadliest of all deadly things: It kills you both when you have it and when you don’t. Lauren Oliver astonished readers with her stunning debut, Before I Fall. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly called it “raw, emotional, and, at times, beautiful. An end as brave as it is heartbreaking.” Her much-awaited second novel fulfills her promise as an exceptionally talented and versatile writer.
