The adventures of Mshko Mshkoyan is the story of a voluntary departure, that of Mshko, a protagonist with an irreverent and free character. The author, who tells the story from his own point of view, at the request of Mshko's girlfriend, starts a journey around Europe with the aim of finding him and bringing him home, but always arriving after his friend and thus ending up never finding him. Every stage he passes through and every unsuccessful discovery, every person he meets and every experience he lives through become a starting point for the author to reflect on life and its circumstances, in a story that winks at masterpieces of early 20th-century Italian literature, in which Mshko recalls Pirandello's Mattia Pascal in some ways and the author recalls a new Zeno Cosini. Will the author manage to bring Mshko home safely?
