ACCIAIO (STEEL)
Book ID/图书代码： 11360010B38160
English Summary/英文概要： The successful debut novel of an author who has won recognition among the candidates for the various young writers’ awards, Acciaio has reached its second edition only a month after its publication, with 50,000 copies in print.
An effective adolescent novel touching on all the Big Themes: friendship, Eros, drugs, domestic violence, petty crime, and death in the workplace. And in the background, the dehumanising effect of industry on the Italian provinces.
The Lucchini steel works in Piombino: against this degrading scenery is a fascinating world where such realistic and probable characters act out their parts. Anna and Francesca, the beautiful brunette, and the even more beautiful blonde who actually stops traffic; Alessio, Anna’s brother, handsome and respected by all, who works in the steel mill because, around here it’s the only job; Andrea, 23 years old, an old friend of Alessio’s, who returns after years of wandering abroad and trying to forget his part in an armed robbery and various other nefarious doings: he’s handsome, and he has an attractive roguish demeanour which immediately takes hold of young Anna. Sabina and Sandra, the mothers, separated by cultural and social barriers, yet so very close in their solitude and frustration. Enrico, Francesca’s dark and violent father; Arturo, the father-child of Anna who will soon end up in shady dealings.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： Anna和Francesca是兩個生活在義大利窮鄉僻壤的海邊小鎮Piombino的十四歲女孩，兩個不僅是形影不離的朋友，也同樣抱有離開的夢想，而離開的原因有很多，其中包含：家裡有個家暴的父親，當一整天受夠工廠的活，回到家就只能兒女出氣或者家有個像孩子一樣的父親；在一個只靠鐵工廠維生的小鎮，男性是唯一有發聲權力的一方；在靠海的小鎮，而學校操場居然是你唯一能暫時逃避的地方…
原以為兩人能就此相互支持度過生活中的困境，但沒想到愛情發生了，發生在兩人蒙懂的青春期，這不僅破壞了兩人的友誼，也失去彼此共同的夢想，挖掘出深藏內心的人性考驗…所有事情都變了，唯一不變的是這鐵工廠依然屹立不搖！(Vincent)
