Children ask questions. Sometimes embarrassing, extravagant, definitive. They want to know why we are born, where we go after death, why pain exists, what happiness is. And adults are forced to find answers. It is an exercise between philosophy and candor, which forces us to review our reassuring system of values ​​every time. Because we can't disappoint them. Nor deceive them. We were like them not too long ago. We now secretly talk about growing old, being fragile, inadequate, even dying. Children are denied the experience of the end. Transience, suffering, defeat are a source of frustration and shame. The aesthetics of eternal youth forces many women into the prison of the perfect body and nails them inside a deadly present, incapable of giving us consolation, even happiness. In this intense, surprisingly joyful narrative investigation, Concita De Gregorio asks us to follow her precisely in these places removed from contemporary discourse. Funerals and illnesses, failures and defeats, if observed and experienced with dignity and sharing, become unmissable opportunities for growth, joy and fullness. Because if there is no worse anguish than loneliness and silence, there is no better relief than going through pain and transforming it into strength.
