Mycket stark skildring av två flickor på gränsen till vuxenlivet i fascismens Italien. En klar brandfackla för kvinnosaken och behovet av ungdomligt uppror i en värld dominerad av männens villkor och samhällets krav på underordning. Men, det är gestaltning, berättarglädjen och språket som gör detta så helgjutet. Hoppas det kommer mer!

Un libro molto femminista che rappresenta il ruolo della donna nel periodo fascista. I personaggi li ho trovati interessanti, con le loro azioni e sentimenti contrastanti, sembravano persone reali, non inventati, proprio perché gli umani sono esseri contraddittori in tutto. Il personaggio della malnata è quello che più mi ha colpito, proprio come la protagonista. Il finale mi ha un po' delusa, la scena del tribunale l'ho trovata un po' smielata.

🇳🇱 Dit boek was niet wat ik verwacht had. Het is totaal buiten mijn comfort zone om, maar wat een boek! Er zitten hele serieuze onderwerpen in verborgen, zoals ongewenste aanraking en oorlog. Deze onderwerpen zijn zo mooi beschreven en je wil continu verder lezen. Het begin spreekt gelijk over twee meiden die een moord plegen, pas op het einde zie je daar wat van terug. Dit zorgte ervoor dat ik daar de hele tijd aan dacht... een hele indrukwekkende manier van het aanhouden van de spanning. Ook het ontwikkelen van de Francesca vind ik zo mooi, het ontwetendheid van die tijd komt naar boven net zoals het preutse van de volwassenen over seks en ongesteldheid. Al met al een boek die goed weergeeft hoe het vroeger was en met een mooi romantische twist (liefde tussen twee jonge vrouwen). De liefdesband wordt niet met zoveel woorden gezegt, maar is wel duidelijk voelbaar tijdens het lezen.
🇬🇧: This book wasn't what I expected. It was a bit out of my comfort zone but man what a book! There where serious topics in this book such a war and unwanted touching... these topics as so well written that you continously want to read the book. The beginning is about two girls who commit a murder, but only in the end you discover more about it. This made me think about it constantly, it is an amazing way to keep the excitement in the story. The development of Francesca is so beautiful, the unknowing from the people in the past is very beautiful described such as grown ups who don't talk about sex and getting your period. It is a great book who shows more from the past but with a beautiful romantic twist (two girls falling in love) the love story isn't told with so much words bit you can feel it through the whole book!
