About
Pampaluna is a coming-of-age novel centred on the search for female identity, in opposition to a patriarchal value system.
The young protagonist is in search of her own voice and, on her way, discovers a new possibility: the word that puts women at the centre of the world’s narrative.
These are the years of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Lady Oscar is on television, Like a prayer is on the radio. New narratives intertwine with the old ones, changing the contours of things.
The tale draws on the experience of the work of Annie Ernaux, Marguerite Yourcenar and Dacia Maraini, and at the same time looks to Raffaella Carrà and Madonna, to those pop models that, since the 1980s, have taken deep root in our imagination.
