Davide is a neurosurgeon who lives in Lucca with his wife Barbara and his son Tommaso. One evening, as he&#8217;s out for dinner with his wife and son, Davide watches Barbara being harassed by a drunken thug, but he&#8217;s unable to move and step in. Just then, a stranger appears, who attacks the aggressor and forces him to flee, threatening him with a knife. After the event, Davide feels unsettled and faces a dormant side of himself with which he&#8217;d never succeeded in getting in touch until then. He decides to look for the stranger, who&#8217;s called Diego and is a Zen monk with a violent past, a hybrid figure who at times recalls a young Bruce Wayne and other times a hitman from a Tarantino film, who recites grand speeches before \u201cpunishing\u201d the wrongdoers he meets. Diego becomes a friend, a spiritual guide, who teaches Davide to get in touch with his aggressive side, to not fear it while also not succumbing to it. From that moment on, Davide lives a different life and subsequent events will lead him to wonder how far one should push violence and which consequences it entails. A novel that narrates the eruption of violence in everyday life, with philosophical digressions on the universe and human nature.<\/p>\n<p><em>Nova<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Fabio Bac\u00e0,<\/p>\n<p>Adelphi, 2021<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nova is an astronomical event that occurs when a powerful nuclear explosion erupts on the surface of a white-dwarf star, which makes it brighter than usual, like a new star, destroying all celestial bodies within the range of the explosion.
