"Lì dove il veleno è salato" 📖

The story weaves together myth, science and memory in a lyrical and enigmatic narrative. The protagonist, Zorica Ljubić, a psychiatrist of Balkan origins, joins a scientific mission on an archipelago marked by a mysterious phenomenon that makes the waters “poisonous.” Through her investigations and discoveries, Zorica encounters a group of women guarding ancient rituals (the Cuvari) and realizes that healing involves not only science but also memory and the deep connections between body, land and myth. The story explores transformation, collective pain and the power of listening to what nature and memory hold.
