About the book: 2014 / Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt is a philosopher and researcher of the human soul, writer and film director, one of the most successful European playwrights, a man who in his books “The Gospel of Pilate”, “The Sect of Egoists”, “Oscar and the Pink Lady”, “Ibrahim and the Flowers of the Koran”, “The Woman in the Mirror” asked questions to God and Pontius Pilate, Buddha and Mohammed, Freud and Mozart. In his new novel “The Parrots of Piazza Arezzo,” he asks himself a question: what is love? “If there are so many heads, so many minds, then there are so many hearts, so many kinds of love,” Anna Karenina once said thoughtfully. Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt unfolds before the amazed and intrigued reader an entire love series just about “how many kinds of love,” bringing each microplot to its climax. Be that as it may, it is impossible to stop reading. Dramatic comedy or philosophical fairy tale? Both. There are many colors of characters, and each has its own difficult but fascinating story. Blaise de Chaballier. Figaro Schmitt the prose writer in his new novel “The Parrots of Piazza Arezzo” demonstrates fantastic skill, tolerance and emancipation. This is a true hymn to freedom and pleasure. Jean-Remy Barland. La Provence
