The man who woke up in the future
When Dr Pier Piccioni woke up after a car accident, 12 years of his life had been erased.
Dr Pierdante Piccioni is an unwilling time-traveller. Twelve years of his life were completely wiped from his memory after he suffered brain damage in a car crash in 2013. When he woke up in the hospital the next day, he thought it was 2001 and could not recognise his wife or his now adult sons.
Reeling from the shock, and no longer able to practise medicine, Pier tries to find the man he had been. Searching through thousands of emails he discovers that he had a dark side.
This is the amazing true story of a man out of time, who, unable to retrieve his past, endeavours to find love and a future in a strange new world.
