Federico, an Italian screenwriter trying to make his way in movies, wages an internal war with his virile member, which he calls Federicus Rex. He is convinced that abstinence strengthens the mind, but his unruly enemy drags him into comical and shameless sexual adventures with a Decameronian flavor.
Work translated from Italian by Juan Carlos Gentile Vitale, with original title «Io e lui»; it belongs to the Clásicos de Nuestro Tiempo collection by Planeta.
For readers of Italian fiction, adult humor, and literary classics with erotic undertones.
Alberto Pincherle, known by his pseudonym Alberto Moravia, was an Italian novelist and journalist. His novels explored matters of modern sexuality, social alienation and existentialism. Moravia is best known for his debut novel Gli indifferenti and for the anti-fascist novel Il conformista, the basis for the film The Conformist (1970) directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. Other novels of his adapted for the cinema are Agostino, filmed with the same title by Mauro Bolognini in 1962; Il disprezzo, filmed by Jean-Luc Godard as Le Mépris ; La noia (Boredom), filmed with that title by Damiano Damiani in 1963 and released in the US as The Empty Canvas in 1964 and La ciociara, filmed by Vittorio De Sica as Two Women (1960). Cédric Kahn's L'Ennui (1998) is another version of La noia.
