Publisher's summary

Au grand jeu du destin, Mimo a tiré les mauvaises cartes. Né pauvre, il est confié en apprentissage à un sculpteur de pierre sans envergure. Mais il a du génie entre les mains.

Toutes les fées ou presque se sont penchées sur Viola Orsini. Héritière d'une famille prestigieuse, elle a passé son enfance à l'ombre d'un palais génois. Mais elle a trop d'ambition pour se résigner à la place qu'on lui assigne.
Ces deux-là n'auraient jamais dû se rencontrer. Au premier regard, ils se reconnaissent et se jurent de ne jamais se quitter. Viola et Mimo ne peuvent ni vivre ensemble, ni rester longtemps loin de l'autre. Liés par une attraction indéfectible, ils traversent des années de fureur quand l'Italie bascule dans le fascisme. Mimo prend sa revanche sur le sort, mais à quoi bon la gloire s'il doit perdre Viola ?

Un livre audio plein de fougue et d'éclats, habité par la grâce et la beauté.

Émouvant

Un roman brilliant sur l’art, la perte, l’amour, l’amitié et les tensions entre la loyauté envers soi-même et sa famille. À travers la première moitié du XXe siècle en Italie, nous voyons les triomphes d’un sculpteur nain ainsi que les déceptions et les folies de sa vie extraordinaire. Magnifiquement écrit. Magnifiquement raconté par le narrateur.
