Chiedi di Esposito
Il protagonista pensa che la sua vita si stia disfacendo, sfuggendogli fra le dita. Un giorno, un sogno ripetuto ed indecifrabile e poi una gita in barca che finisce in tragedia impongono un inesorabile ripensamento del proprio percorso umano. Nuotando da solo per ore in un mare forza sette, immerso nel buio della notte e dell’anima, il naufrago ripercorre tutta la sua vita e ricuce la tela di affetti, storie e fallimenti che puntellano la trama della sua storia, spingendo la morte ed il cedimento un po’ più in là, un minuto alla volta, fino ad un’incredibile rivelazione finale. Una storia vera di resilienza, dove la forza dei legami d’affetto va al di là della paura, della stanchezza e della morte stessa e diventa una celebrazione della vita.
Gli ultimi tramonti

Per lui ha inizio un promettente periodo di svolta: in qualità di esperto di filosofia, viene assunto da una prestigiosa azienda di ricercatori scientifici di Catania per gestire le crisi del personale. Nella ditta conosce colleghi interessanti, tra cui l’affascinante Gloria, da cui è attratto e che sembra ricambiare. Gli viene anche affidata un’importante analisi che lo conduce a una scoperta sconvolgente: le donne del pianeta non sono più incinte da me...
