20,000 Units In Insulin Syringe

The bitter taste of candy Antonio Bianchi


childhood and adolescence far from happy. A mother who dies when he is still too small, two grandparents who are looking for, in some way to fill that void, but to no avail really, an uncle who sees him as the object of his monstrous drives and a father more interested in his career and his adventures in trying to understand what lies behind the silence of the child.

It 's a man who seeks, consciously and, where possible, to resist the demon that works its way into his soul, but that will never drive away. The strange friendship that "bind" to Luke, and Don Mariano and Federico, the meetings will catapult him into a world where there are no rules or laws and, perhaps, whose only existing rule and law is the fulfillment of aberrant desires, that lead him to hope in a providential to self, his body and soul .

A clear and fluent prose that brings to address important topics, from pedophilia, which is the main theme, to bullying, prostitution, homosexuality, issues "uncomfortable" that often avoids dealing. A complaint-book, full of mythological references, historical, philosophical, biblical that make reading enjoyable, not at all boring, with understandable language and in which there twists that keep the reader's attention.
