The Starling Dance: a riotous, heart-warming romance set in Rome
In a sweltering Roman summer, Laure is trying to start a new life. But can she manage in a city where walls have ears, trees have eyes and even the birds are acting strangely?
It's been exactly one year since the shit hit the fan and Laure's anxiety exploded into a full-blown burn out. In search of a new start she's moved to Rome - pasta, Aperol and sunshine should make everything better, right? But with her 30s around the corner,
la bella vita
isn't going to plan.
Her boyfriend, the dreamy Davide, has disappeared (Either Laure's been ghosted or he's accidentally fallen off a cliff - hopefully)
She wants to murder her neighbours: their arguments are keeping her up all night.
In her local café, Laure meets a handsome stranger and the sparks fly, that is until she finds herself caught in a big lie.
'Hmmm, it's not ideal, '
says her best friend Eva, as she puffs on a spliff in the bathtub. Just as things are heating up, a talking tree enters the fray (as if this Roman summer wasn't weird enough, just ask the birds). That tree is Viviano, a dynamic and adventurous street performer who poses around the Eternal City dressed as a tree, well, sometimes a cat too and sometimes a ripe tomato. He could be thriving in life but something is holding him back. One thing is certain though: he wants to meet Laure. Will Laure find her path? Will she accidentally put pineapple on a pizza? And is there a real love story to be found in the surreal swirls of the Italian capital?
The Starling Dance
is a love story full of quirk, humour and heart-warming characters, each trying to overcome their personal obstacles and demons to give themselves a chance at life and love. Lucy Elena is a journalist who has worked across Europe and Latin America.
is her debut novel. It was initially dreamt up as a film while Lucy was working in Rome and became interested in the street artists she passed every day on her way to work, eventually getting to know them. The artsy film of her imagination never materialised but
was born in the form of a book, with a big dose of love, fun and healing thrown in for good measure.
