About this ebook:
«Nel corso della mia vita ho fatto di tutto, proprio di tutto, per smania di racconto». Sulla spiaggia di un ottobre caldissimo c'è un vecchio signore che legge, scrive, passeggia. Una mattina qualcosa gli leva il respiro, gli sfugge. Cosa se ne sta andando per sempre? Muove da questo istante di smarrimento un racconto vorticoso e raffinatissimo, teso e scanzonato, che insegue Rosa, ombra di madre sarta, morta troppo presto, e Lu, giovane commessa di boutique che, nel tempo libero, coltiva la passione per la canoa. Un libro sulla perdita del proprio mondo, sulla vecchiaia, sull'amore per le donne, sul prodigio e lo smacco della scrittura. Gli ultimi sessant'anni di Nicola sono stati una corsa. Ha amato, ha promesso molto e dato molto meno, inseguendo un'idea tutta sua di felicità svagata. Ora ha ottantadue anni, e da tredici giorni ha preso in affitto una casa al mare tra le dune. Ogni mattina va a sedersi in spiaggia, in camiciola e calzoncini, quaderno e matita in mano, e osserva una ragazza pagaiare con eleganza tra le onde. Lu ha vent'anni e quando non va in canoa fa la commessa nella boutique di Evelina. A Nico fa venire in mente sua madre, anche se non le somiglia, come del resto nessuna delle donne della sua vita. Una madre morta troppo presto, reinventata dalla memoria e dalla fantasia, una madre che si faceva bella come un'attrice anche solo per uscire a fare la spesa, che cuciva abiti per le sue clienti, ma soprattutto per sé, quasi una disobbedienza, una fantasia peccaminosa, contro la gelosia furibonda del marito. Per questo gli abiti femminili per Nicola sono tuttora una festa, il segno di una passione ancora viva per le donne. Cosí nella boutique di Evelina assiste incantato, sedotto, al susseguirsi di blazer e caban, taffettà e seta damascata, che le amiche di Evelina prima e Lu poi si scambiano entrando e uscendo dai camerini. In una cittadina ventosa in cui sembra non accadere nulla, Nicola prova a districare le matasse di un variegato catalogo umano fatto di dispetti e pettegolezzi. E allora forse comprarsi un kayak, alla sua età, e andare a caccia di piovre giganti insieme al piccolo figlio di Lu diventa il modo per imbastire la trama di un'infanzia ancora tutta da scrivere, nell'inesausto tentativo di «trovare le parole giuste per dare un senso a ciò che mentre vivi viene giú a vanvera». Il vecchio al mare ha la malinconia di certi orizzonti meravigliosamente lontani visti la sera da terrazze piene di salsedine, e di quegli incontri casuali, un mattino d'ottobre sul bagnasciuga, che a distanza di tempo ricordiamo con gratitudine. Il nuovo romanzo di Domenico Starnone è un perfetto congegno di erotismo, crudeltà, sottigliezza.

I was completely blown away. I became deeply invested in the protagonist's journey. A masterclass in storytelling. I will undoubtedly revisit this masterpiece.

I thoroughly enjoyed the elegance of it. The middle had a deliberate pace, but the climax was phenomenal. I would highly recommend this to discerning readers.

A decent, if standard, experience. The tempo was somewhat languid, and I found my mind wandering. Not poor, simply average. Suitable if your reading queue is empty.
