Product description
Arielyana, "Fifty houses made of stones and two hundred inhabitants," is the town where Pietro and Nina spend their vacation with their grandparents, in a summer they lost at its beginning their mother. An unusual holiday, where the flood that is no longer a flood, the abandoned palace, the Norman tower, and the arrogance of Uncle Rocco, the reckless landowner who condemned the town to poverty and backwardness. Then the discovery of a family of migrants hiding inside the tower, and the division of the locals between those who reject them and those angry at their mysterious presence among them, but that is what will ignite the spark of change and plant the seeds of hope in the south. Amidst the merging of dreams with new tensions, Pietro transitions from childhood to adolescence, and his voice tells us how to overcome death, betrayal, and injustice, and how that stage overflows with tenderness and joy despite all the pains. Through this spontaneous, sarcastic, and wise voice, Katutsila writes a powerful and effective novel, a novel full of shadows and lights, tragedy and laughter, but simple like all things that delve into depths.
