Publisher's Synopsis
Not only do the names of flowers unite them, but also the courage they exchange from one generation to the next. Viola is a young Boldini enthusiast; she lives uncertainly balanced on a thread, and life constantly asks her questions. Her grandmother Giacinta addresses her with a memoir from the past. With instinctive peasant wisdom, she has accepted the challenges of destiny and encourages her granddaughter to believe in her intuitions.
A choral fresco spanning a century, where the great painter Boldini himself will give Viola the help she needs to achieve the highest goal of her life.
Art and the past come together in a marriage of emotions, in a search for the self through respect for the past and love for one's homeland.
