Novels

Ci sono libri che ti fanno ridere, e libri che ti fanno pensare.Where’d You Go, Bernadette riesce a fare entrambe le cose nello stesso respiro. È ironico, tagliente, ma profondamente umano.Maria Semple costruisce la sua storia attraverso email, lettere e frammenti di conversazioni: una struttura ibrida, postmoderna, dove la frammentazione riflette la mente brillante e disordinata di Bernadette, ma anche la confusione della società contemporanea.

Although it's a quick read, I wouldn't call it light at all. My Sister, the Serial Killer is a novel that stays with you, that makes you smile but also reflect. It's a book I wholeheartedly recommend.

There’s a book that captured me from the very first page: Trasgressione (Trespassing in the original) by Uzma Aslam Khan. It was my very first book of 2025, started on the morning of January 1st, when everything around me was still silent and I opened the first page as if it were a sign, an omen. Right away I understood it wouldn’t just be a casual read: it was a passageway. Inside, I found not only a story, but also politics, pain, memory, and conflict.

Unmarriageable by Soniah Kamal is not just a retelling of Pride and Prejudice, but a bridge between Jane Austen and contemporary Pakistan. A novel that holds a treasure of literary references: from timeless classics to lesser-known works, each reference becomes an invitation to explore new worlds.
