Rome, 1965. A man and woman abandon their eight-month-old daughter in the Borghese Gardens and disappear without a trace. A few days later, their bodies are found in the Tiber. In 2021, that same girl, now the renowned writer Maria Grazia Calandrone, embarks on a quest to uncover the truth about this long-ago tragedy. Combining lyrical philosophical prose with investigative reporting, Calandrone reconstructs the mother's biography. Her book is a tribute to the difficult fates of women in southern Italy in the mid-20th century and a bleak reflection on the crisis of empathy and the consequences of institutionalized cruelty.
