Lordy, I guessed the reveal right from the moment of the burglary, do I have a suspicious mind?
Same feelings of Starnone's writing as toward su esposa (which coincidentally also means handcuffs, how apropos).
Lacci published in 2014 in Torino, Italy. Translated from Italian to English by Jhumpa Lahiri (2016, Europa Editions). I read this mainly for the Naples setting and in preparation for The House on Via Gemito .
