Nina

with Simonetta Greggio

Novel

 

Presentation

Adrien, a Parisian man in his forties, single and childless, has lost his will to live and one evening decides to commit suicide. He writes his will and a final letter to Nina, the love of his life, the only woman he has ever loved with a passionate and unconditional love.
Nina and Adrien were children when they met. Memories of their summer holidays spent in Ravello, the jewel of the Amalfi Coast, flood back to Adrien in waves. Postponing his suicide for one night, then another, and another, he commits them to writing in this long letter to Nina, which, as the nights pass, becomes the heart-wrenching declaration of love he had never dared to make to the young Italian woman. Adrien had always dreamed of becoming a writer. He had to wait for this final moment to dare to write. Exhausted but at peace, he swallows a mixture of pills and falls into a deep coma. He has no idea that his words will change several lives: Nina's first, but also those of all those who, near or far, will be touched by his writing.
