Amnesia’s Reviews

Mara on Romance e altri rimedi:

Alba lives her adventures (perhaps I should say disadventures) on the background of an uncontaminated nature and dream landscapes. I read the whole novel in just one night because it completely captured me, despite the harshness of the themes. The fear and the anxiety tied me up to the main character’s fate so much that I couldn’t stop from reading. The story could appear granted, but nothing is what it seems. The mistery about Alba’s origins is really unpredictable. “Amnesia”, in just a bit more then a hundred pages, destabilized me and impressed me with his hardness, frankness and with the intensity of the emotions that made me feel. Incredible turns of events and twists lead the story to a breathtaking finale. I’m absolutely without words.
This is a novel that highlights the complexity of the human soul and shows how much cruelty can lies in the hearts of other people.
This book is suggested to whom are looking for a overwhelming and strong story.

Tatiana on librierecensioni

Amnesia is an intriguing novel. It is able to capture the reader’s attention since the very beginning: the first pages in fact introduce a woman that is confused, wounded and that lost all of her memories. The story is strong and deceptive. Realities that seem dreams, nightmares that hide dark secrets, all in few pages that leave the reader disoriented, like the main character is herself, a lost woman that is seeking her past to bring light in her present.

Stefania on Diario di un sogno wrote:

A novel that captures from the very beginning, intense, strong and real.
Great suspense: the reader’s heart beats at the same rhythm of the author words’ intensity. The reader’s mind gets completely involved in the story. This is a novel that doesn’t rest unnoticed, it’s hard to not being shocked from the vivid passion with which the author evolves every single scene.

Piera de Recy on Novella2000 wrote:

No amnesia can make us forget about our obligation to fight for what we care most in the world: this is the synthesis of Paola Di Nino’s novel. The main character is an example of strength and courage.

 


Condannati a Morte’s Reviews

Dianora Tinti on Letteratura e… dintorni :

A newcomer writer very special … a very dynamic girl with many dreams in her head and no intent to let anybody stop her from achieving them! A great person, I would say, and also quite tough.

Davide Falco on the newspaper “Il Giorno” :

My book between violence and integration. That’s the future according to Paola Di Nino. The writer at her debut with a novel on foreigners. The novel deals with important topics, from the eternal debate on the death penalty to prejudice against foreigners, a topic even more important at this time when there is a high risk of trying to attribute any guilty to the tragedies that disrupt our society.

Roberta on Le Letture di Roberta :

A very deep novel that had involved and touched me. I arrived to the end of it with the desire to start read it again, I arrived to the end of it with the sensation that I learned a lot from this book. I cried, sighed, smiled and struggled with the protagonists.

Cinzia Ceriani on Libero Volo :

Condemned to death, a poignant novel, few pages with a high concentration of conflicting emotions and deep reflections on the value of life and personal dignity.


 

Interviews

Stefania Soleto on the newspaper Settegiorni :

A national tour and the participation in various literary awards. This is the new literary adventure of Paola Di Nino. What is the message behind your novel? The message is certainly to always live emotions without being stopped by anyone. Love, justice, courage and freedom are the values emphasized in my own novel because I consider them at the center of our life.

Ilaria Grasso on Liberi Libri :

Condannati a morte, una storia forte, apparentemente fuori dal tempo, ma, per molti aspetti, straordinariamente attuale. Una storia oltre ogni confine cronologico e geografico, una storia che va oltre il pregiudizio. In questo romanzo non tutto quello che sembra è vero, è pieno di colpi di scena, e anche per questo merita di essere letto.

Cinzia Ceriani on LiberoVolo :

Condemned to death is your first novel. Intense and focused on major themes such as the social exasperation which led to the introduction of the death penalty in a country, Italy, where almost never existed, the corruption, always present, and a sort of judicial extremism. What is the purpose of this novel?

Arianna on Riflessi di Libri :

What do you feel when you write? In all of my works I put my emotions. The truth is that most of the time I refer to real feeling carrying them in a fantasy world. Writing is a way for me to put into play my thoughts and engage the reader in a new adventure.

Virginia on gloCal Magazine :

An eclectic personality all to be discovered. Who ever said that a “scientific” personality can not have literary attitude? Here’s the proof!
