In your hands now, for the first time, the novel that earned its author Mikiella Morja a prestigious place in contemporary Italian literature. The events of the novel are simple, but its condensed narration has given it the layers of assumptions inherent to motherhood, and explored a strange relationship between a girl born twice, and a temporary mother connected to a real practice that prevailed at that time in that specific geographical area, then was suppressed by war. Many dimensions within this book, including: the philosophical dimension that calls for the myth of Demeter and her daughter, and another different dimension that can be summarized in the words: death, life, mercy, and violence.
