Love can take many forms. Those of us who, as our first courtship, know well that we had that imaginary girlfriend or boyfriend, curiously very similar to the girl or boy we really liked and who ignored our evening declarations of love.
Something like this happens to Nellie Oswald in this love fantasy that ends up being this book And red bunting ..., you. A notebook with its blank pages and subtracted from her favorite artist (the one who accompanies her dreams of impossible love while she sleeps, and her surrenders to the imagination when she thinks she is awake), ends up becoming the focus of all her desires and heartbreak. And he ends up outlining in it the face of the ideal man, a type whom he ends up calling Retro.
When she woke up, Retro was there, waiting for her. He has escaped from the first page of the notebook and hopes to find out his destination at the foot of Nellie's bed. Between them, they end up considering, in the first place, the magical materialization that turns the notebook into a magical element that no one else should touch or possess.
A double adventure is born then, the one that leads them to discover the nature of the notebook and the one that leads them towards a common love story not yet written.
A magic notebook, in the wrong hands, can turn the world into a worse space, even worse than it already is. So Nellie and Retro are very careful about revealing their wonderful truth to anyone they meet. They only hope to be able to know the foundation of those pages that manage to make the imagined and traced true. Anything that comes in addition to welcome, especially if it is a love of the truth, of the idealized and that will continue like this forever and ever.
And colorín, colorado ...
