Beatrice Salvioni – La Malacarne – ed. Einaudi
Monza April 1940. For four years Francesca has heard nothing from Maddalena. Her friend has been locked up in an asylum. Then, finally, Maddalena returns. She is small and thin, as if she has never grown, and pretends to be the brave teenager she always was; but Francesca sees that she is different. What happened in the asylum? In the meantime, Italy goes to war. Amid hunger and the fear of bombs, every day becomes more difficult. And the moment comes to choose which side to stand on.
