Ambra Somaschini
Le regole della nebulosa |
|
Nebula: (1) An indistinct cloudlike luminous mass inside a galaxy consisting of hydrogen, helium, and other elements; (2) A hazy or cloudlike set of ideas, feelings, proposals.
Two lovers are surrounded by a galaxy of people who travel, love, dream, suffer, and live between London, Dakar, and Provence. They magically coexist inside in a nebula. This novel tells us what happens when the life we have chosen starts to hem us in, when the couple is not enough, and families expand. We need to find a new balance to reconcile different needs, drives, and desires. This is a modern, topical story, intense and sensual, bursting with feeling and life.
