The Colors Of Seduction

Stefano Vignaroli, Emanuela La Capricciosa

Beschreibung

A betrayed woman decides that she must get revenge not only against her cheating husband, but also the people who for some time revolved around her life: the lesbian friend, the career police officer, the photographer who is half paparazzi and half private investigator, the Milanese writer, the pusher, and so on. The story takes place in the Marche charming townhome of poet Giacomo Leopardi. This town is where Emanuela will carry out her revenge, based on the number seven and colors, the colors of seduction. Seven colors of the rainbow, seven deadly sins, seven secret rooms of her house where, one after the other, the unsuspecting victims of her revenge will end up. An act of revenge that, however, will leave a bitter taste in the mouth of the protagonist.
Emanuela La Capricciosa is the pseudonym behind which, in addition to Emanuela from Recanati,  there are some authors belonging to the literary Token Ring, who have created this short novel as a collective work. A pleasant, flowing and intriguing reading, irreverent enough, but never vulgar.
