Presentation
“I’m going to love you ten years, twenty years, thirty years, until the ultimate point of my existence. I know that. It’s a very strong intuition. And when you’re gone, I’ll live with your shadow.”
The mad love that binds the narrator and her lover seems inextinguishable. It’s a promise and a belief of implacable strength. No matter that her lover is a few decades older than she is, this love is sincere, pure and uncompromising. Their relationship is founded on the sharing of music. He, a talented concert performer, is coming to the end of a busy career; she has the ardour of youth and takes the reins of this story.
Elsa Fottorino’s novel describes a passion that touches the absolute, ignores contingencies and challenges stereotypes. With her delicate, precise writing, Elsa Fottorino gives her story its own unique soundtrack...
Elsa Fottorino was born in 1985. She is a journalist specialized in classical music and she is the author of several novels, including Parle tout bas.
