«Fuochi fiammanti a un'hora di notte» is the novel by Ermanno Rea, published by Rizzoli (312 pages, in Italian).
On a small island that no longer lights the bonfires with which it warned of pirates' arrival, Martino searches for his missing mother. The characters he meets could help him, but they end up disappointing him. Framed as a mystery, the novel is a journey to the root of history and a metaphor for life itself.
Rizzoli published it in 1998 within the 'La scala' series. The work won the Campiello Prize in 1999.
For readers of contemporary Italian fiction interested in novels with symbolic undertones.
