A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF FALL 2021 Following the international success of Ties and the National Book Award-shortlisted Trick, Domenico Starnone gives readers another searing portrait of human relationships and human folly.
His gaze is trained unwaveringly on the fault lines in our public perso.
Or is it he who seeks her out? Starnone is a master storyteller and a novelist of the highest order.
But the shadow of the secret he confessed to Teresa haunts him, and Teresa herself periodically reappears, standing at the crossroads, it seems, of every major moment in his life.
Not long after, Pietro meets Nadia, falls in love, and proposes.
A few days after sharing their shameful secrets, they break up.
In this way, Teresa thinks, they will remain united forever, more intimately connected than ever.
They will hear the other\'s confessions without judgment and with love in their hearts.
After yet another terrible argument, she gets an idea: they should tell each other something they\'ve never told another person, something they\'re too ashamed to tell anyone.
Pietro and Teresa\'s love affair is tempestuous and passionate.
