Il porto delle illusioni

Pierre is a tormented writer, Mia a teacher weary of her routine. Together, they share a deep, all-consuming, yet fragile love: a bond made of daily gestures, sincere impulses, and heavy silences. Keeping them connected is the Black Book, a two-voice diary where they record memories, emotions, and hopes.

But sometimes, love is not enough. When Luca, a young professor, enters their lives, the delicate balance between Pierre and Mia begins to waver. Desire creeps in, doubts multiply, and certainties crumble under the weight of obsessions. While Pierre struggles against his insecurities and the fear of losing everything, Mia finds herself torn between the safety of a familiar love and the dangerous lure of the unknown.

A lucid and poignant novel about the cracks in intimacy, the temptations that test even the truest bonds, and the difficult choice between what makes us feel safe and what makes us feel alive.
