A woman on the run from her past. A child on the run from reality.
A man on the run from himself. Carofiglio confronts the dark side
of the human soul in this captivating story of fall and redemption.
Every week, Roberto Marias crosses Rome on foot to arrive at his
psychiatrist's office. There, he often sits in silence, stumped by
the ritual - but sometimes crucial memories come to the surface. He
remembers when he was a child and used to surf with his father. He
remembers the treacherous years he spent working as an under-cover
carabinieri, years that taught him how cynicism and corruption are
not merely external influences, but also exist within us. He has
lived an intoxicating and crushing life, but now his psychiatrist's
words, the hypnotic strolls through Rome, and a meeting with a
woman named Emma - who like Roberto is ravaged by a profound guilt
- are beginning to revive him. And when eleven-year-old Giacomo
asks Roberto to help him conquer his nightmares, Roberto at last
achieves a true rebirth.
