About Just an Ordinary Man
Thrown out of his home and heartbroken, Mario wanders around a Genoa that suddenly seems foreign to him. He finds refuge at the station, where his encounter with two women, the enigmatic 'Signora' and the provocative Cinzia, opens up unexpected glimpses into a life he thought was over. Between nostalgia for a lost love and the possibility of a new happiness, Mario faces the pain of abandonment, fear of the future and dark secrets that drag him into a vortex of dangerous events. 'Just an Ordinary Man' is a novel that explores with a dry and realistic style the complexity of the human soul and the fragility of relationships, against the backdrop of an evocative and decadent Genoa. A journey into the intimacy of a man in search of redemption, among the lights and shadows of a city that guards its secrets.
