Horace, a very young man, experiences his first romantic escapades, spiritual anxieties, uncertainty about the future, and the awakening of his ambitions in a Paris that is shaken by new ideas and social uprisings. He falls in love, worries, fears, enjoys, suffers, deludes himself, gets carried away, and drags lovers and friends into the whirlwind of his excessive gifts and flaws.

Around him, there are people who adore him and others who hate him, who believe in him or feel betrayed. And Georgia Sandi involves the lives of all these individuals against the backdrop of shocking historical events and writes a novel full of passion - relevant to every person who has been young and, above all, who wants to always be young.
