Erin Doom, the pen of "Tear Maker", the new literary case with thousands of copies sold, is actually called Matilde, is less than thirty years old, comes from Emilia and has a degree in law. To reveal it was herself during the hosted by Sunday 14 May 2023 at "Che Tempo che Fa" by Fabio Fazio, where he revealed his true identity for the first time.

As explained by herself during the interview, she decided to hide behind a pseudonym, a fictitious name, because she is very shy and introverted. Over time, however, she realized that she was missing out on something and, for this reason, he decided to come out:

“As for the surname Doom, I chose it because in English it means both fate and condemnation.”

Erin Doom at What the Weather Is “Anonymity for me was like the invisibility cloak for Harry Potter.”

Erin Doom, still speaking of his anonymity, also confessed that he wanted to abandon him in order to finally be able to look his many readers in the eyes and say "hey, I'm here":

“For me it was a bit like the invisibility cloak for Harry Potter. I still remember last year when, at the Turin Book Fair, I was unable to participate in an event dedicated to me because the hall was too full and, not recognizing me, the insiders did not let me in. I went around with Carrie Leighton and another writer friend and the little girls stopped them with lighted eyes. They made books and I took pictures. No one was calculating me: it was incredible.”

Doom, to follow the work, revealed that she was on the set of the film "Tearmaker" by Alessandro Genovese, but officially she was just an intern at the publishing house.

Finally, addressing his many readers for the first time, Erin Doom said these words to them:

“I would like to say a big thank you to my readers who trusted what I wrote for so long even if they never saw me.”

"Stigma", the new book by Erin Doom that will be released tomorrow May 16, 2023: what it's about

Erin Doom, during his speech from Fabio Fazio, also premiered stigma, his new book (the third) which will be released tomorrow in all bookstores. Here's what it's about (warning: spoilers!).

Mireya, the protagonist, is a young woman who no longer believes in miracles. Too many times her life has chewed it up and spat it out, deluding her that a glittering future was in store for her. Alone and without means, she decides to move to Philadelphia, carrying only a suitcase, while the freezing winter rages around her in an unknown city.

However, his personal "miracle" seems to take place when he comes across the eccentric and sumptuous sign of the club Milagro's, where he manages to get hired as a bartender. Here he will meet Andras, the head of security, with whom it will be hatred at first sight. Both bear the same signs, the signs of those who had to fight... we'll let you discover the rest by reading the pages of stigma.

Writing, a passion carried on in the dark

Erin Doom she never thought of becoming a professional writer: writing, for her, has always been an escape, something "futile" to take refuge in while studying Law.

A passion born precisely during the night when, in order not to steal time from studying and not being discovered, he waited for everyone in the house to go to sleep, finished studying, then turned on the computer and immersed himself in it:

“My parents didn't find out until after I signed the contract, I revealed it to them and a very few friends.”
