Ciao Roberta! - 9791282521161

Ciao Roberta!, Very nice This is a very nice sweet story, actually inspired by a real event. There are four characters in this tale. To begin with, Roberta, a painter, and Andre, a retired theoretical physicist; both are rather old and live in Paris, They meet in an art museum and become friends. Actually, their visits to various museums and art galleryes are organised by the “ Society of Arts and Sciences of Paris”. I would very much wish that such a society should actually exist, but at least to the best of my knowledge, it sadly does not. The two other characters in the story are Michel and Rene’, two youngsters, grandsons of Andre’. Together with their mother, Andre’ s daughter, and their Italian father, they live in Rome. Although only about ten years old, the older brother Michel is already a gifted painter. And Rene’ draws too. Periodically, together with their mother, they come to Paris. A very warm friendship at a distance develops between Roberta and the two young boys. And then occurs a little miracle... This is a very moving scene, and when I first read it, then tears of emotion came to my eyes.
