Cosa resta di noi
Sellerio

Guia is a young woman who seems to have everything: her aristocratic family, a promising career as a writer and a husband who adores her. But she calls her inability to get pregnant "death seen in reverse". Edo, her husband and the narrator of the story, sets forth the scenes from a marriage that is self-destructing in the golden retreat in Versilia, where they are wintering, as Guia imbues the pages of her next novel with her desperation. Another woman appears in Edo’s life, but inexplicably disappears just days later. It’s a sensational case that marks the eruption of a blind, destructive force in Edo and Guia’s already troubled marriage.

Giampaolo Simi is the author of Il corpo dell’inglese (2004) and Rosa elettrica (2007).
