Everything at Once: A Novel

Nando managed to work as an electrician, a railway worker, and a bartender, but his true passion has always been dancing. He and his wife, Catherine, participated in all the dance marathons on the Riviera — of course, aiming to... win. The family passion for victories was passed down to Sandro, but his element is cards. Once, he had a job, a girlfriend, a future. They were replaced by the card table, where Sandro hopes, by taking risks, to win everything at once, experiencing euphoria, melancholy, and cold indifference. And now the prodigal son returns home to face his own fears. Marco Missiroli's novel is a journey through the deserted streets of winter Rimini, where even the seagulls are silent, and the winding corners of family relationships.
