Giambattista Bodoni, bouquiniste de 60 ans, perd la mémoire suite à une attaque. Il ne reconnaît pas sa femme ni ses enfants mais il se souvient de ce qui a trait à la vie extérieure: les évènements oubliés, les lectures. Sur les conseils de sa femme, il retourne dans leur maison de campagne où sont conservés les objets de son enfance. Il revit ainsi sa jeunesse dans l'Italie des années 1930.
