Vita e morte delle aragoste

Lobsters never stop growing – they constantly abandon their shells and create new ones to adapt to changes. Between the provinces of Calabria and Rome, amidst youthful dreams, shared flats, travel, love stories, literary ambitions, relationships that come to life while others break apart, Antonio and Vincenzo, AKA Teapot, go through the years of high school and university together, until they reach the threshold of adulthood. Around them, a procession of original figures, capable of shedding a new light on everyday life. An ironic and refined novel about precariousness that gives us a snapshot of a generation with precarious affections and interests, and an unforgettable protagonist, Vincenzo Teapot, constantly poised between success and surrender, a perfect son of our age: not great, not tragic, a hero who shrugs off pain and fears only failure.
