This autobiographical work of fiction tackles what it was like for a Jewish boy to grow into a man in the aftermath of World War II. As the narrative unfolds, we resonate with the touching, introspective journey of a human being who strives to build an authentic future for himself, reflecting on the importance of navigating life or, as the author would put it, "listening to life's music and discovering the redeeming power of human relationships". The novel reflects upon the struggles of traumatic heritage while also proposing a cure: the main character's very personal solution to finding his own voice, through the poetics of singer-songwriter Georges Brassens, and his songs. Ferruccio Osimo is a psychiatrist who loves to sing. He holds training courses in psychotherapy in Italy, England, Israel and the USA. He also performs in concerts with his guitar. Some Amazon readers' reviews of the Italian original: Synthesis of a life lived to the fullest. Very direct, true, intimate and courageous. Poetry of daily life that becomes History. You are accompanied through situations, events, people... From the words of Brassens to Osimo's music. Enriches the reader. Marco A good book. Giovanni Panzera The novel of maturity. Written looking back with the courage to re-live all the effort made to grow, coming from a context of injured people, of WW2 survivors. You surprise yourself from breaking into a big smile to being deeply moved while reading. Marchi Stefano An intimate book, where the author lays bare his feelings and deepest anxieties. Brassens' music emphasises his experience, providing a key to reading events. A true book that you read all in one breath and leaves the reader with a good feeling. Stefano Very nice, intimate and delicate: recommended! Franci In the background, the History of persecution against the Jews and, then, the years of reconstruction. In present times, marked by new wars, the optimism of will that runs through Osimo's novel, gives good hope. A must read, full of stimuli, never weighed down by ideology, even funny. Elvira
