Della Rovere

When I tell a story, I dream,
I live an imagined life,
sometimes I subtly confess my secrets, and at other times I lie,
but always, in one way or another, I open myself to strangers,
and it could not be otherwise.

Amare note

The plot

Why does Mozart, a genius recognized and celebrated through the ages, not have a grave, not even a cross under which to place a flower?

What caused the sudden extinction of the extraordinary creativity of Rossini, who died at 76, yet ceased composing almost forty years earlier?

This novel, set against the backdrop of the early 19th century tumultuous by the Napoleonic wars, attempts to answer these questions with a fanciful yet intriguing hypothesis, colored with the typical hues of melodrama, a story of love and deceit, but also of hope in the possibility of redemption of the human spirit.
