When he got arrested for the femicide of Stella, Cesare is 15 years old. From the cell where he is imprisoned, he sends us his thoughts, memories and obsessions of a history of control and possession disguised as romantic love.
Anger and sorrow, remorse and certainties, are mixed in a diary that gives account of all that Caesar built and then destroyed.
Mine arises from a program of emotional education through emotional writing workshops that involved Italian and foreign schools. The author has asked girls and boys to imagine themselves as victims of different forms of abuse, and to describe that condition starting from what they observed or lived.

The protagonists, the plot and the language of this history arose from these stories, filtered by the author.
