A truly wonderful story.
We follow Gianni, a teenager who has tragically lost his parents in a car crash, in which he survived. From the busy streets of London and all he has ever known, to the quite and tranquility of Ravello, a small town in Italy.
He moves in with with his grandparents. But his summer seems to be saved when he meets Angelo, a teenager who promises to show him the world and what Ravello has to offer.
They soon become good friends and share many adventures over the summer, which create many memories, some good and some bad.
You really need to read to realise the true spirit of The Summer of The Firefly.
Highly recommended.
