Short after My Family and Other Animals here we are again reading about a child and "his" island.
The mood is quite different: while Gerry is childishly enthusiastic about anything and Corfu is a paradise for his adventures, Arturo is way more focused on his teen drama and Procida is both a refuge and a prison.
It could easily become one of my favorite books.
