«Como de aire» is the autobiographical novel by Ada D'Adamo, published by Lumen in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
The work follows Ada and her daughter Daria: a misdiagnosis conditions the girl's fate, and the illness the mother discovers becomes the impetus to tell their shared story. Coexistence, arguments and secrets mix with joys and tenderness, in a narrative that moves from past to present and traverses both their bodies.
Translated by Celia Filipetto. It won the 2023 Strega Prize, the Strega Giovani Prize, the Mondello Prize and a special mention from the Campiello Prize.
A work for readers of biographical fiction and intimate accounts of motherhood, illness and memory.
