"My father died eleven years ago, when I was only four. I thought I would never hear from him again, but now we are writing a book together ..." This is how The Young Woman with Oranges begins, which makes the reader reflect on the intensity of Life, but also about death. A story that tells us about Time and what we really are, what mystery we share with the universe. Would we choose to be born, and to know life in all its intensity, knowing that perhaps it is to remain only an instant in it? Or would we reject the offer? Georg, a 15-year-old boy passionate about astronomy, finds an ancient letter that his father wrote for him when he learned he was going to die. In it he tells her of the great love he felt for the mysterious Young Woman of the Oranges to finally ask her an important question, to which Georg must answer. Before answering, Georg will have written a book with his father, a book that goes beyond time and the limits of death.
