About time

Svevo Romano is every woman’s dream: he is irresistibly handsome, filthy rich, and at the height of his career. The only problem is that he is a ruthless workaholic by day, and a drug-taking playboy by night.

One day, while Svevo boards a plane, his life changes completely: time mysteriously speeds up, but only for him.

Just as everything threatens to spiral completely out of control, Svevo’s life acquires a meaning that transcends time and space. In this suspenseful, funny, and sensual novel, one of Italy’s most talented young writers explores the frenzy of the modern world, and demonstrates that time spent without love is time wasted.
