More about the book

Set against the backdrop of a devastating pandemic, ten individuals retreat to a country estate near Florence to escape the surrounding death. They engage in storytelling as a form of diversion, sharing one tale each day for ten days, culminating in a rich collection of 100 stories. This unique narrative structure not only highlights the power of storytelling but also reflects themes of resilience and human connection in times of crisis.
