Letter to a Child Never Born

Originally published by Rizzoli (Italy) in 1975, LETTER TO A CHILD NEVER BORN was quickly translated and sold in twenty-seven countries, becoming an extraordinary world success. It is the tragic monologue of a woman speaking with the child she carries in her womb. This letter confronts the burning theme of abortion, and the meaning of life, by asking difficult questions: Is it fair to impose life even it it means suffering? Would it be better not to be born at all?
