«Presto con fuoco» is the novel by Roberto Cotroneo published by A. Mondadori in paperback (230 pages, in Italian).
A famous pianist finds an unknown manuscript version of Chopin's Fourth Ballade, with a different ending and a dedication to Solange. The novel follows the itinerary of that score between fin-de-siècle Paris, Nazi Berlin and Stalin's Moscow, and weaves mystery, passion and a reflection on Romantic music.
First edition in the VoltaPagina collection (A. Mondadori, 1995). It won the Premio Selezione Campiello 1996.
For readers of contemporary Italian fiction and lovers of classical music and mystery novels.
