Di me non sai
Lucio falls in love with "the boy" even before meeting him: just watching him from the window of his office is enough for him to become almost obsessed. When they finally meet, he discovers that Davide is much younger than him (still studying), and that he is elusive, unreliable, and "cruel" in the way only twenty-year-olds can be cruel.
For two months, Lucio and Davide have dinner together, have sex, go to the beach, and often sleep at Lucio's place. However, Davide does not fall in love. He continues to seek Lorenzo, the only man he (perhaps) truly loved, of whom he keeps only a pixelated photo on an old cellphone. Like many twenty-year-olds, he is also confused, wounded, and willing to nestle into the routine of always having a Coca-Cola ready for him in the refrigerator.
"Di me non sai" tells the story of a relationship lived in an opposite, incompatible way, whose nature is revealed to the reader only as the novel progresses. Alternating the perspectives of the two protagonists in short, sometimes very short chapters, Raffaele Cataldo shows the misalignment of feelings and the painful consequences it can have, the slow pace of hot Apulian summers, and the obsessive loves (present and absent) that, like wild oat seeds, cling to hair, shoes, and clothes.

Pornorama
Questa storia è una ragnatela di fili spezzati: se si riesce ad afferrarne uno, il resto scivola via. È la storia di un'inquietante serie di morti nel mondo del porno tra Roma, Milano e Torino, ma è anche la storia dell'indagine condotta dall'ispettore capo Vittoria De Feo. È la storia di come una coppia di ventenni, Bet e Teo, sia finita su quella stessa pista in cerca di un colpo per rilanciare il proprio blog, ed è la storia del tentativo di un giornalista di gossip di fare lo scoop della vita. Attorno alle loro complicate ricerche si muove un coro surreale di personaggi grotteschi: chirurghi che si arricchiscono commerciando sex toy modellati sull'anatomia delle pornostar morte, avvocati luciferini che tengono i tirocinanti al guinzaglio, analisti forensi che tentano di sfondare come youtuber, ex attori di programmi per bambini caduti in disgrazia, psichiatri che si travestono da avocado durante le sedute, influencer verbose strafatte di cocaina, untuosi manager di attrici hard. Il tutto accompagnato e condito da droghe sintetiche e contratti di sottomissione, mani mozzate e crostate al limone, conigli domestici e programmi trash, magazzini Ikea e set pornografici. Dietro la detection più pura si dipanano coniugazioni di una pornografia dell’essere per la quale, oramai, non esiste più nulla di osceno.
