ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

STREGA AWARD 2023; STREGA GIOVANI AWARD; MONDELLO AWARD; FLAIANO INTERNATIONAL AWARD; CAMPIELLO AWARD (special mention)

"The magical book that is moving all of Italy" (El Pa s): a literary phenomenon with over 120,000 copies sold in a month and translated in ten countries.

Daria is the daughter, whose destiny was marked at birth by a misdiagnosis. Ada is the mother, who on the threshold of turning fifty, discovers she is ill; but this discovery becomes an opportunity to address her daughter and try to tell her their story. Thus, everything revolves around Ada and Daria: daily fights, anger, secrets, but also unexpected joys and moments of great tenderness. Words travel through time, in a continuous back and forth between past and present. A narrative of extraordinary strength and truth, in which every moment is offered to the reader as a gift: it is a reading that changes us, that tears us apart and reshapes us.
