An unforgettable classic that is more relevant than ever. When her father forces her to attend a ski school, Alice suffers a serious accident that will mark her forever. In turn, Mattia, a reserved child, carries the fatal consequences of an act he committed a short time ago. Childhood has caused Alice and Mattia the kind of wounds that hardly heal, and that lead them to a devastating loneliness during their adolescence. However, at the moment when the two meet, friendship will be born and their lives will intertwine until, on occasions, they feel closely united. Alice will dedicate herself to photography, and Mattia will develop her talent for mathematics. And yet, like those special numbers known as 'twin primes', something keeps them irremediably 'alone and lost, together but not enough to really touch each other', as Mattia thinks.
Paolo Giordano is an Italian writer who won the Premio Strega literary award with his first novel The Solitude of Prime Numbers.
