The play centers on the character of Mariarosaria, a girl who lived next door to the house where the author grew up. She was a girl his own age with whom he had nothing in common, because their families no longer socialized due to past disagreements. Mariarosaria studied, attended high school, took piano lessons, and was interested in philosophy—all things that set her apart and distanced her from the world of teenagers determined to have fun without giving much thought to the consequences of their actions.
Just when De Summa, many years later, decides to tell the story of this young woman and her infatuation with a friend of his—a love nipped in the bud by her family—he discovers that Mariarosaria died on the very day he began writing about her.
This coincidence strikes him and leads him to complete his work—a text that weaves personal experience with quantum physics, finding in this science the reasons why two lives seem to remain inextricably linked. “There is an experiment called entanglement,” writes the author, “which states that if we entangle two particles for a sufficient amount of time, then—even if we separate them—they remain connected to one another. So much so that if I act on one, the other will react to the stimulus just as if I had acted on it. At the moment, there is no plausible explanation for this relationship, but the fact is that it exists and is real. I can’t help but draw a connection between what happened to me and what happened to Mariarosaria: are we inextricably linked? And are we also connected to everything with which we’ve entered into a relationship? These are the questions at the heart of my new work, which explores—through a science still unable to provide explanations—the value of our lives.”
