En la Europa de 1956, dividida tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Amara, una joven periodista de Florencia, decide cruzar el telón de acero en busca de Emanuele, su amor de adolescencia. Su única pista es un puñado de cartas y un cuaderno oculto en el gueto de Lodz. Amara viaja en trenes lentos, visitando lugares marcados por la guerra como Auschwitz y Viena, y se encuentra en Budapest durante la revuelta húngara. A través de su búsqueda, Dacia Maraini retrata la catástrofe del siglo XX, con un desenlace inesperado que dejará al lector sin aliento. Una novela inolvidable sobre el amor perdido y la resiliencia en tiempos de guerra.
