Beschreibung

"Vittorini is one of the very best...I care very much about his ability to being rain with him when he comes, if the earth is dry and that is what you need." Ernest Hemingway

Vividly capturing the heat, sounds and smells of southern Italy, Conversations in Sicily astounds with its modernity, lyricism and originality.

"Timeless...It is very hard to give any adequate sense of [its] power" Michael Dibdin, Guardian

"The book-Guernica. One of the great, unique books of our literature" Italo Calvino

"A valuable, lyrical snapshot of a country succumbing to fascism" Nick Johnstone, Uncut

Translated from the Italian by Alane Salerno Mason
