The brief love story that Sonia lived in the summer with her teacher, an older man and married in the 60's. For the autumn, Tonio travels with his family abroad, leaving Sonia with his most intimate memories. Sonia has lived in Florence, Paris and has acquired the romanticism of the interwar years she has found in books, paintings and music of the time. He has chosen to live a life apart, of introspection, away from the crowds, but always in a sensational mood.
