Summary

Through conversations with her doctor -with whom she will end up establishing an intimate and passionate relationship-, Goliarda Sapienza lucidly reconstructs her fascinating life journey: from the abandonment of the family home, the journey through the third category pensions, the initiation into dramatic art, to the persecution by fascism, the madness of the mother, the difficulty in relationships with the other sex and the sweeping love for the filmmaker Citto Maselli ("we did not do the foolishness of getting married, or thinking about it, we made the pact to be together as long as the pleasure of being together lasted").With magmatic and vehement prose, these pages describe the complex and painful process of a personal and universal awakening; they trace the parable of a deep reflection free of any moral prejudice on the feminine condition, the discovery of fragility, restlessness, strength, fears, love and life.
