A love story crossing continents, with strong characters, still subject to Destiny. Their meeting, unsuspected, barely confessed in their hearts, quickly falls apart.
Emma, a budding young writer, meets Tim Darlington, a famous writer whom she admires and to whom she writes on Medium under the name Blubird, at the creative writing classes.
But the Blue Bird is killed and the electoral lie to propel Tim Darlington as America's first homosexual president places an insurmountable distance between them.
The three characters, Emma, Tim and Luca form a love triangle where days and nights, messages, questions intertwine and unravel.
Written in a modern manner, with references to medieval histories, the novel THE MORNING WHEN I KILLED THE BLUE BIRD, by Mihaela Raileanu, is a universal confession.
The new president of America elected in 2028 declares in his oath his regret that he did not talk about the woman he loved. "Lying is an anti-power," he says, apologetically. The guitar feather with the inscription "Metallica" from a famous concert in Tokyo is actually the feather of the song, flight and writing of the Blue Birds.
