The novel explores the lives of Alice and Mattia, two individuals scarred by traumatic childhood experiences that leave them feeling isolated and disconnected from the world around them. As they grow up, their paths intersect, and they form a unique bond, recognizing a kindred spirit in each other. Despite their deep connection, they struggle with their own emotional barriers and the inability to fully bridge the gap between them. The story delves into themes of loneliness, the search for identity, and the complexities of human relationships, painting a poignant picture of two people who are forever close yet perpetually distant, much like prime numbers.
