Sulla cima di un monte, Saffo è ormai decisa: soltanto trovare la morte gettandosi dall'alta rupe allontanerà lo spettro della vecchiaia e di un amore infelice. Ma prima di compiere il gesto estremo, la poetessa rivede con l'occhio interiore la sua intera esistenza: il rapporto con la schiava Prassinoa, l'amore per Alceo e il tentativo, compiuto insieme a lui, di abbattere il tiranno Pittaco, le avventure erotiche che la porteranno da Delfi all'Egitto, fino ai confini del mondo antico. L'autrice di "Paura di volare" fa rivivere la poetessa greca e la sua poesia, la sua fragilità, ma anche la sua forza, il suo coraggio.
