The confessions of a concubine
One day you will be happy, but first life will teach you how to be strong. A powerful novel, charged with strong emotions, with a cadenced rhythm. A story of domestic violence, of psychological abuse that will grab you in the gut. Mysia, a young woman, and her monochromatic life that step by step will become increasingly tinged with black, a black that knows sadness, fear, mourning. And in an escalation of violence, when the situation seems to become irreparable, impossible to bear, it will seem as if there is only one solution... But life is sometimes able to surprise us, and although this will not represent a fair reward for the wrongs suffered, perhaps over time it will be able to mitigate the memories, cushioning sharp edges and opening an unhoped-for glimmer of light. Every one of us deserves a life in color, deserves to finally be the architect of our own destiny, without succumbing any longer, to finally be free to love, to love each other. PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Iulia farnesia - letters from a soul
Can the soul of a woman, sold to the highest bidder by her family, find redemption? The real story of Giulia Farnese, a woman far beyond time. Giulia Farnese, a woman who traverses time to find, in this novel, her redemption. Her real story is that of a woman who goes far beyond the figure of Sponsa Christi as she was known throughout the world. The writer traces the profile of a strong woman who, once free from the trammels of a family that raised her to be obedient, rises from her ashes and the damnatio memoriæ to become the mater and the domina of the feud of Carbognano. With an absorbing prose, and based on an historical plot of true events, the author gives back to La Bella the dignity that historical documentation has always overlooked, preferring to chase after fifth century gossip.

The long shadow of a dream
The night that Greta thought of the opportunity to turn her life around, a strong and icy wind from the north was lashing the sea, she could still remember it. she made her mind up: she was going to run away. Thus begins ”The long shadow of a dream”, lives intertwining, pride, recurring stories, emotions and passions… destinies. Greta is a girl who decides to take her life in her hands but then realizes that she has never really broken away from her native land; she understands that a wound to be truly healed must be painfully cleaned up to get to the heart of the problem. You need to go to hell and back in order to see the sky again. Of course, nothing will ever be the same again, but this is the way to go if you want to live and not exist. These are the strengths of this novel, it is well-structured, and easy to read. A romantic novel which is not too romantic. It conceals countless ideas which are open to a number of interpretations, but which is above all the analysis of a man seen as a human being, at the mercy of an unpredictable life.

Tales (un)veiled
That’s the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within, not for want of a teller, but for want of an understanding ear (Stephen King) Fifteen captivating stories that will hold the reader spellbound until the very end of each narrative, offering a voyage from historical epochs to contemporary times, infused with elements of noir. The anthology contains several gems, including Monoculus Orsinum; The beautiful Galiana; Trial of a witch; Re-start; Paraments; The Moai's revenge. Each narrative plunges you into lives that have been relived countless times and historical periods marked by intense drama and emotional depth. What stands out most, however, is the variety of themes explored and the overarching message of hope and love the author presents. From legends, conflicts, and cunning strategies to witches and cutting-edge smartphones, it's the modus operandi of each protagonist that truly sets these stories apart.
