Protagonista di questo libro allegro e disperato è Learco Ferrari, scrittore ormai non più aspirante nonché alter ego dell'autore, giunto alla quinta puntata della sua saga. Vittima di un incidente automobilistico, si trova ricoverato nel reparto Grandi ustionati dell'ospedale di Parma, dove deve riapprendere i gesti della quotidianità. Un romanzo medico molto sui generis, pieno di situazioni paradossali che restituisce, attraverso una folla di voci e volti, il totale nonsense della realtà.
