Agoraphobia

Agorafobia di Ruggero Goldoni

Planned release: January 2024
 

Presentation
 

Nadia suffers from agoraphobia and lives alone in a flat, her only contact with the outside world being her friend and lover Lorena. 

When Nikola's appearance in their lives forces the two of them into a conflict dictated by jealousy, Nikola is forced, in the painful confrontation, to tell them about Lorena, dragging Nadia into a trip down memory lane that will take them to their home village in Bosnia and Herzegovina in April 1992. 

He Serbian Orthodox Christian, Lorraine Bosnian Muslim and their love that crosses the cruelty of war, that demands to survive despite being pierced by hatred and racial intolerance. 

Nikola's solemn promise to Danica, Lorraine's mother, to protect her daughter will lead him to set aside his own fears and perform heroic acts in a war-torn land, in defiance of his own life and psychic vulnerability. 

 

A novel that takes the reader through an emotional journey, delving into the human soul and laying bare its fragilities and virtues.

Presentation
 

A boy, a man, meet in a dimension suspended between past and present. The poet and the narrator, two voices of a single life. Their dialogue spans the entire space of the book and manages to weave a vivid, painful, at times tense plot that speaks to the reader of the struggle to grow up, of questions that find no answers, of disillusions, passions and hopes. In the background the blurred but incisive presence of the people and situations that animate the Milanese suburbs of the 1980s, similar to those of many other cities, with their tensions and contradictions. Thus, the poem that gradually sketches the figure of a restless adolescent, fascinated by the lights and shadows of life, searching for himself and the meaning of the things that happen to him, is counterpointed by the benevolent gaze of the adult he has now become. He can look at that young poet with a feeling of gratitude: perhaps today's fulfilment stems precisely from having been able to respectfully guard the questions of that time, those questions that took one's breath away, that provoked the urgency of writing. From having welcomed that boy, from having known how to come to terms with those anxieties, comes the fascinating journey that the author proposes to us through this work in which he has collected his youthful poems, written between '78 and '84, and the suggestions they suggest today.

Presentation
 

An experimental anti-fable, where the topics change according to the reader's age: cute fairy tale for children as well as serious narrative for teenagers, and stark reality for adults.

 

A kind of post-modern fable elegantly and skilfully crafted by a poet.

 

It captures the reader's emotions and invites reflection.

A tale about love, with all its problems and facets.
