Beyond the Limits of Fear and Silence

Identity, justice, and rebellion in 1980s Calabria

Is limes a limit?

There are boundaries that define places and identities—and others, more subtle and profound, that intertwine with souls. In her new novel Col buio me la vedo io (Einaudi), Anna Mallamo takes us to Calabria with a story about the courage to go beyond the limits imposed by fear and silence. The tale of sixteen-year-old Lucia Carbone, who kidnaps the son of an Aspromonte mafia boss, explores the daring step across a dangerous line—the one that separates revenge from justice, and adolescence from adulthood. In this space of transition, the light of memory and the darkness of uncertainty blend. A chance to dive into a powerful novel where darkness is not only the absence of light, but a realm of possibility.
