The “sweet talent” is the first novel by Maria Lupoli
Advertisement
Daughter of an impetuous land of mermaids, sea and volcanoes, arcane legends and magical superstitions, although an eternal wandering traveler with a nostalgic heart, Maria Lupoli grows up among serpentine Neapolitan alleys where she dedicates herself to humanistic and psychological studies, but always pursuing literary passions and desires.
An unrepentant collector of artistic charms and small antiquarian preciousness, today he lives in a coastal village where, in the embrace of dear old things, intellectual cats and placid ghosts, he writes stories and very secret poems.
“The sweet talent” is his first novel.
Have you ever celebrated the funeral of a lost or irreparably damaged object, very dear to your heart?
Ecate Logorio, a young woman with a secluded and enigmatic life, manages a special funeral agency reserved for the objects, ancient heirlooms, and dear, old things of her singular clients, regularly accompanied by their faithful ghosts.
But a brazen kleptomaniac curiosity will lead Hecate in the wake of an unexpected destiny: the mystery of a small object, together with an insistent sequence of signs, serendipity and stubborn ghosts, will prove to be the beginning of a profound inner change and surprising discoveries.
This novel is an important project for Maria which required a lot of work but, above all, a lot of love, and this is why she comes out of her comfort zone to share this news with all those who will be readers.
I hope they want to read it and love it as I loved imagining it, dreaming it and writing it!
