Voices in the Evening
Natalia Ginzburg
After WWII, a small Italian town struggles to emerge from under the thumb of Fascism. With wit, tenderness, and irony, Elsa, the novel's narrator, weaves a rich tapestry of provincial Italian life: two generations of neighbors and relatives, their gossip and shattered dreams, their heartbreaks and struggles to find happiness. Elsa wants to imagine a future for herself, free from the expectations and burdens of her town's history, but the weight of the past will always prove unbearable, insistently posing the question: "Why has everything been ruined?"Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Natalia GinzburgPublisher: New Directions Publishing CorporationPublished: 05/04/2021ISBN: 9780811231008Pages: 144Weight: 0.36lbsSize: 8.00h x 5.20w x 0.40d
