La vita di Loris Capirossi comincia in mezzo alla polvere e alle colline romagnole: Borgo Rivola ha cinquecento anime e ci si arriva per strade che a vederle sono tutto un programma.

Cronaca dell'innamoramento, esplorazione del discorso amoroso, anatomia del sentimento al tempo della crisi, il nuovo romanzo di Giorgio Fontana disegna la geografia emotiva di un personaggio che trova se stesso per poi disorientarsi, smarrendosi in un movimento interminabile.

Così come inganna quella passione, quella speranza, che per un momento ha illuminato, violenta e paradisiaca, la mente e il cuore.

Sviscerando la realtà, analizzandola, sezionandola e traendone regole generali, interrogandosi a vicenda.

In un caldo giorno di maggio arriva nella zona uno sconosciuto, che trova lavoro presso un agriturismo come istruttore di equitazione: Aldo Durante. Con un passato non chiaro, pochissimi bagagli e uno splendido cavallo nero, non conosce il senso del possesso, e sembra del tutto incapace di mentire. Le donne che lo incontrano ne sono affascinate, mentre gli uomini, compreso Pietro, ne sono profondamente irritati.

Souvent la vie s'amuse. Elle nous offre un diamant, caché sous un ticket de métro ou le tombé d'un rideau. Embusqué dans un mot, un regard, un sourire un peu nigaud. Il faut faire attention aux détails. Ils sèment notre vie de petits cailloux et nous guident.
