The heroes of the novel “The Human Body” by the famous Italian writer, author of the world bestseller “The Loneliness of Prime Numbers” Paolo Giordano are full of an irrepressible thirst for life and a willingness to take risks. Some people can’t wait to leave parental care, some want to prove to the world that they are a tough guy, some are slowly making career plans, while others are simply afraid to admit that they are burdened by the past and are ready to run away from yourself to the ends of the earth. In search of new experiences and dreams come true, they go to a peacekeeping base in Afghanistan. They all know that this place is still dangerous and it is unlikely that a serene vacation awaits them, but none of them even suspects what they will actually have to go through and what the most important questions in life will be answered.
