PRESS RELEASE (17/1/2014)

Saturday, Jan. 18, a Loano, at 4 p.m, at Council Chamber in Doria Palace the presentation of the book “The Domino Effect” by Raffaella Verga, organized by the’UNITRE of Loano under the auspices of the’Department of Tourism, Culture and Sports of the City of Loano.

The meeting with the author of the novel, winner of the 1st prize in the 37th “Mario Pannunzio” literary contest, will be presented by Umberta Bolognesi.

We read in the book's introduction: The Domino Effect is a beautiful story of personal change, of opening up to new visions of the world, visions that contemplate forgiveness, freeing ourselves from those inner burdens and bricks that we sometimes carry with us even our whole lives. The Domino Effect is a liberating book. The main characters, Amelia and James, two professionals in their 40s, live on tracks already laid out. It will be the meeting and interweaving of their paths, their paths, that will determine their “domino effect”: when the pawns of their lives so neatly organized in order to guard against change, in order not to abandon dogmas and reassuring patterns, will fall one by one. Thus, having dealt with their “loose ends,” they will be free to face and embark on a different, true path marked by Love, a total, cathartic Love that is fulfilled in reconciliation and encounter with God.

Raffaella Verga, born in 1971, lives in Albenga and divides her time for work between Rome and Milan, where she teaches Psychology of Conflict at ECampus University. Always interested in psychology, internal psychological dynamics and external behavior, after graduating she specialized with a master's degree in coaching.

She published her first long story “Story of Another Woman” with Firenze libri in 1998; in 2008, her first novel “With the Eyes of Others” was published by Albatros il Filo publishing house; again with the same publishing house, in 2010, she published her second novel “Black Labels for Good and Evil.” “The Domino Effect” is his novel of personal and literary maturation.{:}
