At times, willpower can surpass destiny; at other times, destiny prevails over willpower. Nevertheless, love can be so powerful that it transforms into a truth capable of overcoming fears and the limitations of misunderstandings, transcending any compromise that hinders the feeling, going beyond destiny. In 1990s Tuscany, five elderly ladies embark on an adventure along the coast and make a chilling discovery: a house locked since 1979, inhabited by two corpses. This reveals the love story of two young people who remained united by their love until the very end. This novel extensively draws upon facts, anecdotes, reflections, and questions about life and what lies beyond it, offering an interpretive key that is not explicitly stated but subtly revealed through the story's meaning. It explores themes of love, loss, the necessity of believing in an afterlife, and the courage to deeply understand oneself. Each chapter serves as a piece of a puzzle, with the full picture only becoming clear at the conclusion. Alessio Sanna (Olbia, January 1985)
