"In Capuccino one can drink an incomparable frappucino and the best espresso ristrettissimo in Paris. In these cafes four adult women (aged 40 +VAT) meet every Friday, in order to confide in each other their successes and defeats in the worlds of work and love. Sylvana, a pianist, is currently experiencing a hot romance with a Nubian diplomat; Ilona, a Ukrainian, a Russian language teacher, the perfect mother, searches for men, who support her well-being; Lily, a press agent of a large fashion house, collects love affairs, in order to fight her own ferocious jealousy of her husband; and finally, Diane, an actress and screenwriter, connects matters of work and love in far off Brazil, which fascinated her for years. The tacit spectator of the colorful, often shockingly frank secrets of the Parisian women is the bartender, the young Italian, a student at the Academy of Fine Arts. Standing from a bar, close to the mezzanine, where his clients impressively remain, he hears their stories, procures an unusual education and gets to know the lives of contemporary, adult and independent women. He dreams however of a traditional family by the side of his virtuous fiancee. The aroma of fresh brewed coffee permeates the atmosphere of this contemporary Parisian story."--Translated from p. [4] of cover.
