Ennio has fulfilled his dream: he has achieved international success with a debut novel that has been awarded and praised by both critics and the public.
Ennio is spending the summer in Portofino, at his publisher’s villa, surrounded by artists and trying to write his next book while enjoying luxury, boys, and prestige, when he receives a letter from Julia, the literary agent of his ex-boyfriend Clive. In it, she informs him that the novel that catapulted Ennio to success is actually a plagiarism of the one her client never published, and she threatens to sue him.
Did Ennio really plagiarize Clive’s novel? What happened during their relationship to bring things to this point?
By alternating the perspectives of Ennio and Julia, all the pieces will come together to reveal a mosaic of ambition, rivalry, broken loves, insecurities, and passion, with the fierce publishing world as the backdrop.
In Las magnitudes del vacío, Bruno brings to light the nuances of people; he invites us to delve into the psyches of his characters in such a way that we will keep thinking about them long after closing the book. A sharp, fresh, and addictive read.
