Afternoons of Suspended Love by Stefania Lucchetti is the English edition of the well loved Italian author’s collection Pomeriggi di amore sospeso published in Italy by Gruppo Albatros Il Filo. Afternoons of Suspended Love is a bilingual (Italian and English side by side text) poetic journey through the seasons of marital love – a collection which explores couple life in its deepest truth: made of everyday gestures, shared challenges, and an intimacy that renews itself. With fluid, warm, and musical writing, the author guides us through the suspended afternoons of two lovers who, in the heart of a mature marriage, still know how to seek and choose each other.
Here, love is not idealized but lived: between disenchantment and wonder, between effort and passion, between skin and soul. It is a hymn to the quiet strength of devotion, to the beauty of small things, to the courage to transform time into complicity.
A book that, with a whisper of eroticism, speaks to the heart of those who love and those who have loved, to those who believe that true love does not burn out but transforms every day, together.
