Io che non ho conosciuto gli uomini
A book with the atmosphere of a dream, which arouses intense and profound emotions in the reader
Synopsis
In an underground bunker, thirty-nine women are held in solitary confinement in a cell. Guarded by violent guards, they have no memory of how they got there, no sense of time, only a vague recollection of their previous lives.
As the hum of electric lights blends day into night and the years pass, a girl – the fortieth prisoner – sits alone and outcast in a corner.
This mysterious girl who has never known men will be the key to the others' escape and survival in the desolate world that awaits them on the surface.
