Five women move in a ' unforgettable geography of the soul. An illiterate bitch who keeps a small Bible full of notes in the margins, the grace of ghost of a woman betrayed by the mirage of twentieth-century America and in love of a land called Afra, the strength of a nun who has stopped to wait for news from the African front of El Alamein, a teenager survived the bombing of Naples and her sisters survived the surreal atmosphere in the Second World War, a servant girl possessed by the demon love. What links their fate and their point of view, sensual and desperate?
Their lives touch of modesty to extraordinary heights of love, affected by the wounds of history el'invadenza necessary to become lost while awaiting the returns. Afra is the earth, alma mater, which runs through this story with a subtle form of eroticism and is also an echo in which we recognize the voice of an Italian writer.
Luisa Ruggio , journalist and writer from Puglia, published by Besa Without Stories (2010), Special Mention Award Bodini 2010. Afra , his first novel, won four literary awards. She is the author of the blog devoted to writing "Inside Luisa", www.luisaruggio.blogs.it
