De amor a primera vista. Así será la relación de cualquier lector con este libro, que recoge apenas una mínima parte de lo que es el Universo Chavela Vargas. Belleza, sabiduría, inteligencia, simpatía, sensibilidad.

Nel 1997 nascono i Sun Eats Hours, la prima band di Francesco Lorenzi. Sono quattro giovanissimi vicentini alle prese con un grande sogno: fare della musica la propria professione. Dopo qualche anno hanno già all'attivo quattro dischi in inglese, più di trecento concerti, migliaia di fan del loro punk melodico e il premio come Miglior punk rock band italiana nel mondo. Ma il grande successo ha anche un altro volto: la loro vita si smarrisce dietro a eccessi e comportamenti autodistruttivi, l'energia della giovinezza e della celebrità si disperde tra relazioni falsate, bugie, ubriacature moleste.
