      Fabrizio Garrone, an aristocratic translator struggling with poverty and feelings of inadequacy in Milan, discovers a lost Viennese novel that reignites his hopes for recognition. Inspired by the writings of a late literary critic, he believes that translating "The House on Moon Lake" could finally elevate his status in the literary world and fulfill his dreams of acclaim. This journey explores themes of ambition, desperation, and the quest for validation in the face of life's disappointments.

      The House on Moon Lake
    • Un romanzo che l'autrice costruisce come un puzzle di specchi, dalla cui somma emerge non tanto il profilo di una identità, piuttosto il complesso disegno di un'esistenza. Al capezzale della madre morta, Stefania ritrova tracce del proprio passato. Nel romanzo si rincorrono storie di ieri e storie di oggi, un passato povero in un paese ricco di tradizioni e memorie e un presente che può diventare opulento ma a costo di un azzeramento memoriale.

      Sogni mancini
