Alessandra Bacarelli is a contemporary writer who depicts the contradictions of modern youth with a sharp and introspective gaze. Professionally linked to the Neapolitan publishing house Colonnese, she made her debut with the novel Le apparenze (Appearances, 2021). In this work, she explores the world of Bibbi, a young woman immersed in the rituals of an apathetic, upper-class Naples, caught between art galleries and a generation seemingly lost in "shots" and social display.
In 2023, she continued her narrative journey with Esistere (To Exist), a work that delves into themes of existential fragility and the sense of belonging in an accelerated era. Her writing stands out for its ability to capture the aesthetics and anxieties of the Neapolitan elite, analyzing the clash between image and substance in the search for an authentic identity.
