Secondo Piano, il secondo romanzo di Laura Benedetti, si svolge all’interno del mondo accademico, presentando domande pressanti sulle contraddizioni della globalizzazione, il ruolo delle università e la capacità della scrittura di ristabilire l'equilibrio in un mondo sempre mutevole. La narrazione segue Federico Conti, direttore del dipartimento italiano di una prestigiosa università americana, mentre affronta la morte improvvisa del suo collega Jacopo, un vecchio professore dell'università. Emanuela Medoro offre una recensione dell’ultimo lavoro di Benedetti.
