Παρουσίαση
A collection of eight remarkable short stories, Life in the Country contains some of the very best of Verga's prose. Brilliantly capturing the extremes of poverty and hardship, the stories tell of life in a rural community - in all its harsh reality. From the licentious woman who coerces her son-in-law into agreeing to an illicit affair in 'She-Wolf', to the young boy who is robbed of his childhood and forced to work down a mine in 'Nasty Foxfur', and the returning soldier who unleashes a sea of passion and vengeance from within the village folk in 'Rustic Honour', they speak of blood and hunger and property, and, together, form a remarkable chronicle of country life. Rich in colour and style, Life in the Country is Verga's heartfelt attempt to record the very essence of Sicilian life. (From the publisher)Toν/την συγγραφέα αυτόν προτείνουν οι:
