Lo stato dell'unione: Scene da un matrimonio

The novella's division into ten distinct parts offers a unique pacing and perspective. I wonder how Hornby decided on this format and how it influences the emotional impact.

Hornby's wit balances the emotional tension perfectly, but I’m curious if others felt it sometimes undermined the seriousness or made it more accessible.

The setting feels intimate and specific, almost like a theatrical dialogue. I wonder if the idea came from personal experience or a desire to explore everyday relationship dynamics.
