Book Description
Ti diranno che ciò che osservi non è reale, tu non badare e guarda oltre. Ti diranno che i sogni sono solo fiamme che alla fine si spengono, tu non crederci e mantieni vivo il loro ardere. Cercheranno di persuadere il tuo pensiero, ma fà che quel pensiero sia più forte di loro. Ti sbatteranno in faccia realtà che scuoteranno il petto, non sederti mai alle loro pretese, avanza sempre con le tue.

The Little Virtues
Author: Natalia Ginzburg
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1628729023
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
In this collection of her finest and best-known short essays, Natalia Ginzburg explores both the mundane details and inescapable catastrophes of personal life with the grace and wit that have assured her rightful place in the pantheon of classic mid-century authors. Whether she writes of the loss of a friend, Cesare Pavese; or what is inexpugnable of World War II; or the Abruzzi, where she and her first husband lived in forced residence under Fascist rule; or the importance of silence in our society; or her vocation as a writer; or even a pair of worn-out shoes, Ginzburg brings to her reflections the wisdom of a survivor and the spare, wry, and poetically resonant style her readers have come to recognize. "A glowing light of modern Italian literature . . . Ginzburg's magic is the utter simplicity of her prose, suddenly illuminated by one word that makes a lightning streak of a plain phrase. . . . As direct and clean as if it were carved in stone, it yet speaks thoughts of the heart.' — The New York Times Book Review

From one of Italy’s greatest writers, a stunning novel “filled with shimmering, risky, darting observation” (Colm Tóibín) After WWII, a small Italian town struggles to emerge from under the thumb of Fascism.

Socially Symbolic Acts
Author: Joseph Francese
Publisher: Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press
ISBN: 9780838640982
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
This book discusses issues of broad cultural consequence by examining the work of three of Italy's most prominent living novelists, Umberto Eco, Vincenzo Consolo, and Antonio Tabucchi. The introductory chapter continues a discussion of some of the topics already broached in the author's Narrating Postmodern Time and Space (1997). It uses an approach that is both historicist and psychoanalytic to critically address topics in cultural studies and Italian studies. The book deals with fictions of very recent publication, many of which have been published after the turn of the millennium, filling important gaps in the critical bibliography. Close readings relate texts to their historical and cultural contexts, critiquing their ideology while preserving their Utopian moments.
