<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Gigì - An Italian in Nottingham</em> deals with a young composer coming from Italy experiencing the English University, its ways, its girls, the general environment, finding out his own illusions struggling for staying alive. In the first part, there's a focus on the drinking culture and clubbing, especially on the lack of honesty and frankness between people, including strange ways of chatting girls up, ways which I describe from my outcast position while I am trying to integrate within these manners, hating myself for failing and even attempting to suicide because of it. The title <em>An Italian in Nottingham</em> says already everything, for it enlightens comically the absurdity of the story since the very start. On the other hand, the second part is characterised by a stronger and grown attitude toward issues and life, flowing into a romantic and troubled love story ending in an ambiguous way with Gigì, a Chinese girl studying in Nottingham for few months.</p>
