Publisher's Synopsis
The Real Silvestri is a novel written by Mario Soldati, originally published in Italian. The story follows the life of Silvestri, a successful businessman and entrepreneur, who is forced to confront his past when he receives a letter from a former lover. As Silvestri reflects on his life, he begins to realize that the success and wealth he has achieved may not be enough to fill the void left by his past mistakes and lost love. The novel explores themes of love, regret, and the pursuit of happiness, as Silvestri navigates his complicated relationships with the women in his life, including his wife, mistress, and former lover. Through flashbacks and introspection, the reader gains insight into Silvestri's character and motivations, as well as the societal pressures and expectations that have shaped his life. Soldati's prose is elegant and introspective, immersing the reader in Silvestri's world and emotions.
