I read this book in one afternoon; it flows easily. Giordano is a physicist and his characterization of Mattia is excellent, naturally a bit of a loner coping with a childhood tragedy. Story follows him and his friend, Alice, who is coping with her own issues. The story is unusual and well-written. There are some explicit places, but not gratuitous, just a heads up if considering for your teen to read.

Its is interestingly depressing ... good but dark. It is very well written.
