Blurb:
In
the lax atmosphere of middle-class post-war Italy, sex and drugs are
easy to come by. Roberto tries to find his own balance, but a crush he
had for Alessandra in elementary school is reignited and the course of
his life is changed forever.
It's
the 1970’s, a time of political upheaval driven by disillusioned young
people. Roberto is caught up in the times. He makes a new start, but his
past catches up with him. Finding himself accused of a crime, he must
defend himself even when he isn’t sure he committed it. A vivid snapshot
of European post-war society, this novel is viewed through the eyes of a
young adult coming of age.
