Meeting Laura Anna Annina Lorenzi

"...dedicated to those minds wanting to think, to those hearts wanting to beat, to the brave and the crazy."

A young writer, a challenge that he can't not accept and his "crazy" idea to follow that dream with his whole being. In his pocket, a plane ticket for New York, a few bucks, a little bit of fear, and a lot of determination. A manuscript that he hugs to himself, "as if it were the most important thing on the face of the earth," a book already written, ready to be consigned to the world, but with a surprise ending that draws the reader in. A trip with an uncertain outcome, most assuredly unexpected, in order to meet his muse, and to give her his opus, sensations, words, and emotions for a better tomorrow. An unusual trip, apparently simple, but always intriguing in its "becoming," narrated among thoughts, memories, emotions, and clear images depicting her, Laura, really that same Laura that the whole world knows and acclaims... (or maybe not?)
