About this listen

NEW: You can find Emmanuel's story with photographer Gianni on Amazon in the form of a listenable ebook: My Story With Gianni.

The protagonist of this mini-story is a boy named Emmanuel, a handsome twenty-year-old who suddenly finds himself in financial difficulty and to cope with the emergency thinks of trying his hand at a career as a “part-time” model, despite his shyness and introversion; in this attempt he is encouraged by his faithful friends Carlos and Mayra.

As chance would have it, Emmanuel’s choice falls on Gianni Gandolfini, a rather well-known fashion photographer in the Milan area.

Gianni is immediately struck by the boy’s shy and particular beauty and makes him his favorite subject, launching him into the world of fashion.

Emmanuel, in turn, without realizing it, falls in love with the image of himself that the photographer reflects back to him like a mirror.

The story will soon take an unexpected turn.

  • The Rustic (What the fuck kind of voice does your girlfriend have?)
    Jul 7 2025

    Emmanuel, who has come out of the experience with Gianni with broken bones (see the episode "Meet Aaron"), tries to forget the disappointment by accompanying his friend Bruno to discover a "fantastic" rustic house in the woods above Savona.

    The boy will be puzzled by what he finds before his eyes.

    During the return trip, however, Emmanuel receives a phone call from Gianni, which Bruno inevitably listens to...

    The interpreters are Paul Emmanuel, Bruno and Anthony (AI).

    During the episode you can listen to a piece from the "Habanera" of Bizet's Carmen.

  • Meet Aaron - Part II (The end of a dream)
    Jun 25 2025

    The catastrophe is approaching: the photographer Gianni ridicules and humiliates Emmanuel, in an unthinkable comparison with the magnificent and wild Aaron.

    The boy endures, both for love of Gianni and because he needs money, and tries to see the positive side of the situation: for example, an excellent lunch in a tavern and the simple spontaneity of Aaron, who has sympathy for him.

    In the end, however, Gianni's words are so offensive that they unleash a tragic rebellion in Emmanuel.

    The interpreters are Anthony, Vincent (Paul Emmanuel), Peter and Betty (all AI).

    The soundtrack includes covers of "When You Die" by MGMT and a piece from "Promentory" by Dougie MacLean (soundtrack to "The Last of the Mohicans").


    This episode marks the end of Emmanuel and Gianni's affair.

    But can their story really end like this?...
