The story of a small Italian town where fishing, biking, and rock 'n' roll make
the news, until tragedy turns everything upside down.
Muglione. Nothing grows in this Tuscan backwater except the wild imagination of
Fiorenzo, a nineteen-year-old metalhead. He lives for his garage band, horror
movies, and fishing in the murky irrigation ditches outside of town. But when
his path crosses with Mirko, the teenage cycling phenomenon, and Tiziana, the
smart but frustrated head of the local youth center turned refuge for the town's
hard-drinking seniors, his world will never be the same. From the brink of
despair they fight their way back through honesty, resilience, and laughter,
their fates interweaving in a story that is at once achingly funny, bitter, and
full of poetic fervor.
Told with the tenderness of a Fellini film, this contemporary novel continues
the great tradition of Italian literature and cinema.
