Anima Mundi

A powerful novel that explores the search for meaning, the fragility of human relationships, and the unseen forces that shape our lives.

Walter grows up in post-war Italy, trapped in a world of emotional neglect and silent suffering. His father is distant, his mother cold and indifferent, leaving him yearning for connection and purpose. When he meets Andrea, a charismatic and free-spirited young man, Walter is introduced to a new way of seeing the world—one filled with passion, philosophy, and rebellion against fate.

As he embarks on a journey that takes him across different landscapes and into the depths of love and loss, Walter encounters Laetitia, a woman who becomes central to his emotional awakening. But as relationships unravel and dreams collide with reality, he is forced to confront life’s most profound questions: Can we escape our destiny? Is there an invisible force guiding us? And what does it truly mean to belong?

Written with lyrical prose and deep philosophical insight, Anima Mundi is a poignant meditation on love, fate, and the soul of the world—an unforgettable story of one man’s search for truth in a universe full of mysteries.
