Beschreibung
Ab Urbe Condita (From the Founding of the City) These pages, full of emotions, vitality and lightheartedness typical of adolescence, deal with an ordinary boy attending High School in the 1960s, and his teenage life. With a direct and authentic style, words become almost carnal, like the passion and the love that the protagonist feels, and that describe his first relationships with girls. Fantasies, obsessions, dreams and hopes that do not portray just a young man’s life, but also emblematic years, namely the 1960s, which can be re-experienced when reading this engaging and moving novel. Like in a magic time inversion, this book will make you relive the past. Will it be able to stop the future as well? Per aspera ad astra (Tthrough Difficulties to the Stars) After High School, the “warrior”, the young protagonist of this book, enrols at university. He strives to earn an Industrial Chemistry degree in five years, dodging what the author calls the “asteroid storm” of 1968, a “civil war” that changed millions of people’s lives and that destroyed the “dinosaurs” of that era. It is a tricky phase for Italy’s future, a phase of creation and destruction at the same time, where people think of the future but hold on to the values of the past: family, honesty, work and meritocracy. The young student has a hard life. He tries to graduate and to live a happy love relationship with his girlfriend, despite the violent student riots and the temptations represented by the many “enchantresses” living in his world.
