A Milan that is both a portrait of the metropolis and a symbol of the babel of all time. Against this backdrop moves the protagonist of *Un amore*: a man unaware that he has waited too long, who remains at heart a young man and believes that feeling can work miracles. And so the mature professional falls madly in love with a very young woman, already laden with the cynical unscrupulousness and moral weariness of an era. Buzzati's only erotic novel, *Un amore* continues the investigation into the anxieties of contemporary man, describing the parable of a true love, of exemplary clarity, destined to be lost in lies as in a labyrinth.
