Summing it up, the story of the book is very minimal and doesn't sound very original. It's the story of a man, whose purpose in life changes with the passing of time, as he becomes more and more mature and responsible about many things: a marriage, some extra-marital affair, a work he doesn't like and a family that doesn't support or understands him, a battle with a disease, etc. As he becomes more aware of himself and of the people around him, he also changes his view on fate and fortune, that are something he's afraid of and doesn't really understand at the beginning, and becomes able and confident to control and shape into happiness towards the end. That's more or less about it.

More books? Well, yes and no. There are more writings, but I'm not sure some of them are part of a single and complete work. I'll have to look into them one of these days and see if they can be collected into a something, somehow. But could be they're all indipendent and unfinished works. In that case, I'll have to leave them or think of something to arrange them.
