The Tear of Venus
Christmas Eve 1991, when everyone expected to reap some of the holiday cheer in a changing world, she would face her fate, a girl then in the prime of adolescence. That was also the first time she wondered if the pronunciation of her name was coincidental: "Mirella"...
"Destiny come" she seemed to hear and see for a moment, as if someone was calling her deafeningly towards the broken mirror and into the darkness...
No celebration dawned for the girl who would grow up so fast in a day. Two and a half decades later, now a mature woman, fate would beckon her again, bringing rather than depriving her of a man. The one who, through his health problem, with his own name "brings victory to the battle".
"Mirella" and "Nikomachos"... Are the symbols accidental? Maybe yes maybe no. For what invoked fate can prejudge the most auspicious fortune? When, indeed, the journey towards this, the last one, sheds light from the depths...
Everything will be fine
Everything seemed, at first, random. Their acquaintance, the convergence of their perceptions, the reciprocity in their actions, the harmonization of their dreams... But then, the first waves came in a windless sea that little by little began to collide. Until her frothy puffing spewed out Marialena's desperate message to him, like a bottle thrown away in despair, yet always with one last hope...
A novel that is much more than romance. A social, idealistic, but mainly psychological novel, with two central characters, but one... at the "center": A woman. Or a girl who looks like a woman…
