Nina

with Simonetta Greggio

Novel

Presentation

Adrien is a Parisian man in his forties, single and childless. He has lost his will to live and decides, one evening, to commit suicide. He writes his will as well as a final letter intended for Nina, the woman of his life, the only one he has ever loved with a passionate and unconditional love.
Nina and Adrien were children when they met. Memories of their summer vacation spent in Ravello, the jewel of the Amalfi Coast, come flooding back to Adrien. Putting off his suicide for one evening, then another, and yet another, he writes them down in this long letter to Nina, which becomes, as the nights go by, the moving 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 medications and falls into a deep coma. He has no idea that his words will change several lives: Nina's first, but also that of all those who, near or far, will be touched by his writing.
