«O Jogo da Verdade» is the contemporary novel by Sveva Casati Modignani, published by Porto Editora in paperback (416 pages, in Portuguese).
Roberta, a young bookseller, is going through an existential and marital crisis: Oscar, her husband, does not live up to her expectations. A painful introspection takes her back to her childhood and to the absence of Malvina, her mother, a committed feminist in '68. Secrets and conflicts surface as Roberta seeks to reconcile with herself and with the women in her family.
For readers of contemporary and romantic fiction, interested in introspective plots and in relationships between mothers and daughters.
Sveva Casati Modignani is the pseudonym of Italian author Bice Cairati. For her first three books the pseudonym was shared by her late husband, Nullo Cantaroni. She has sold over 12 million books in Italy and is one of the country's most popular authors. Even though she has been published in 20+ countries, her work is not yet widely available in English, although at least one book, Mister Gregory, has been translated.
