About this listen

Brand new: Emmanuel's Rebellion - A True Story - on Amazon: Electronic Soul: Throwing Up In This Misery eBook

You can find Emmanuel's story with photographer Gianni on Amazon in the form of a listenable ebook: My Story With Gianni.

The protagonist of this mini-story is a boy named Emmanuel, a handsome twenty-year-old who suddenly finds himself in financial difficulty and to cope with the emergency thinks of trying his hand at a career as a “part-time” model, despite his shyness and introversion; in this attempt he is encouraged by his faithful friends Carlos and Mayra.

As chance would have it, Emmanuel’s choice falls on Gianni Gandolfini, a rather well-known fashion photographer in the Milan area.

Gianni is immediately struck by the boy’s shy and particular beauty and makes him his favorite subject, launching him into the world of fashion.

Emmanuel, in turn, without realizing it, falls in love with the image of himself that the photographer reflects back to him like a mirror.

The story will soon take an unexpected turn.

    Emmanuel turns 21 and is invited by both Mayra and Antonia.

    Emmanuel, in the disguise of Christian, overhears a stormy dialogue between Gianni and Maximilian, during which he has confirmation of the jealous "Massy's" violent contempt for him and hears Gianni claim that Massy is his one great love.

    Without hesitation the boy, shocked and hurt, leaves the show and goes to Antonia's house so that he can spend some time in the company of his son Martino.

    But it is late, and Antonia already has Emmanuel's couch-bed ready...

    The performers are Paul Emmanuel, Anthony, Mark and Alice (AI).

    The soundtrack includes a bizarre cover of Air's "Sexy Boy" (Taormina remix).
