Description

Almarina is an intense and poignant story about finding love in unexpected places. Elisabetta Maiorano's life is one of routine, until she meets Almarina, a Romanian woman with a complex past. In their small classroom, they discover a pathway to freedom and learn how to live again.

Valeria Parrella's novel explores themes of atonement, forgetting, and starting over, as Elisabetta and Almarina form an unlikely bond. The result is a warm and intimate tale that touches on the universal experience of loneliness.

This beautifully written story has been translated by Alex Valente and published in 2021 by John Murray Publishers Limited. With its unique blend of politics and personal narrative, Almarina is a powerful exploration of human connection and resilience.
