A Love Affair
Cover art for a novel by Dino Buzzati
Graphic designer Rafael Nobre invited me to illustrate the cover of this book, which is part of the Biblioteca Áurea Collection, published by Nova Fronteira in 2019. The cover portrays the enigmatic main character.
'By telling the story of Antonio Dorigo, a middle-aged architect who falls in love with the young prostitute Laide, Buzzati continues the investigation of human anxieties, reaffirming recurring themes in his narratives, such as nostalgia and an existence shaped by emptiness and loneliness.'
