About the Book

Quanto di quel che abbiamo vissuto da bambini ci rimane attaccato alla pelle? Ci si puo salvare dal male che abbiamo respirato crescendo? Rosa e nata nel quartiere San Nicola, il piu antico e malfamato di Bari, un affollarsi di case bianche solcate da vichi stretti che corrono verso il mare, un posto dove la violenza "ti veniva cucita addosso non appena venivi al mondo". E a insegnarla a lei e ai suoi fratelli e stato il padre, soprannominato da tutti Faccia d'angelo per la finezza dei lineamenti, il portamento elegante e i denti bianchissimi; tanto quanto nera - " 'gniera gniera' come un pozzo profondo" - aveva l'anima. Faccia d'angelo ha riversato sui figli e soprattutto sulla moglie - una donna orgogliosa ma fragilissima, consumata dall'amore e dal desiderio che la tenevano legata a lui - la sua furia cieca, l'altalena dei suoi umori, tutte le sue menzogne e tradimenti. Ma Rosa e convinta di essersi salvata: ha incontrato Marco, ha creduto di riconoscere in lui un profugo come lei, e fuggita a Roma con lui, ha persino storpiato il proprio nome. Oggi, pero, mentre il suo matrimonio sta naufragando, riceve la telefonata piu difficile, quella davanti alla quale non puo piu sottrarsi alla memoria. Ed e costretta ad affrontare il viaggio a ritroso, verso la sua terra e la sua adolescenza, alla ricerca delle radici dell'odio per il padre ma anche di quelle del desiderio, scoperto attraverso l'amicizia proibita con una prostituta e l'attrazione segreta per un uomo piu grande. E, ancora, alla ricerca del coraggio per liberarsi finalmente da un'eredita oscura e difficilissima da estirpare. Rosa Ventrella ha scritto un romanzo coraggioso, animato dalla volonta di smascherare la violenza che affonda le sue radici, dure e nodose come quelle degli olivi, nella storia di tante famiglie. Ma, con la sua lingua capace di dolcezza e ferocia, ha saputo mettere in scena a ogni pagina l'istinto vitale, la capacita di perdonare e rinascere.
