This remarkable volume covers over a hundred years of Italian literature and many of the 40 stories featured have been translated into English for the very first time. Jhumpa Lahiri, a talented writer and translator, has chosen works from both well-known and more obscure writers, while presenting a wide range of Italian voices and experiences. The authors are thoughtfully introduced before you dive into their work. This beautiful edition deserves a place of prominence on the shelf of any lover of literature.
