«Nauwelijks geraakt» is the novel by Sandro Veronesi, published by Bert Bakker in paperback (298 pages, in Dutch).
Mète is a young man immersed in the bustle of Rome. His life changes when Belinda, his seventeen-year-old stepsister, stays at his house temporarily and awakens ambiguous feelings in him. The novel portrays a generation that has received everything without possessing it, trapped between consumerism, television and the emptiness of the big city.
It is the Dutch translation of the Italian novel «Gli sfiorati», originally published in 1990. The translation is by Rob Gerritsen.
