Dan P. Ionescu's novel, Twin Souls, is structured around the couple Daniel and Nadia, whose emotional and intellectual adventures are inspired by reality. The action of the novel begins in the fall of 1973, with Daniel's enrollment at the Pedagogical Institute, where he meets, in a moment of impasse, Norma Gomez, a voluptuous and married Colombian woman. The narrative thread is fragmented by Proustian sequences that culminate with the onset of Nadie's illness: from here on, the narrator's attention will be divided between Daniel's emotional experiences and the evolution of Nadia's illness, which accentuates the dramatic charge of the love story.
