The ripped flowerPaperback, 15 March 2015

Sex is beautiful, romantic, satisfying... like a flower. But, when it converts into violence it's horrible, vulgar, devastating... It becomes a ripped flower. In this novel, the lives of four 'normal' people turn around a single, heavy reality... Lavinia, grappling with the first crushes, the not so excellent marks at school, the love for music and 'her' Vasco... Camilla, mysterious, charming, intriguing girl who made a break with the past... Federica, a paediatrician very fond of her profession, but who, almost sneeringly, can't get pregnant... The little Elisa, which is only 5 years old and loved strawberry tarts and horses before an ogre stole her innocence... The loss of cheerfulness, the pain and the acquisition of a new awareness will be the steps through which these creatures will recover. The lives of the main characters interlace, in a plot with unexpected repercussions...
