Set against the backdrop of industrial capitalism, this whimsical fable explores themes of ecology, lunacy, and love. The story delves into the destructive impacts of modern society while examining various forms of spirituality and societal definitions of madness. Newly translated into English, this 1973 novel by Giuseppe Berto stands out as one of the early environmentally-conscious works in Italian literature, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of nature and human experience.
Giuseppe Berto Livres
Giuseppe Berto fut un écrivain italien dont les œuvres se caractérisent par une profonde perspicacité psychologique et une représentation troublante de l'existence humaine. Ses romans explorent des relations complexes et les dilemmes moraux de ses personnages, souvent situés sur fond de l'Italie d'après-guerre. Berto saisit magistralement les luttes intérieures et la quête de sens dans la vie de ses protagonistes, créant des œuvres intemporelles empreintes d'introspection et de questions existentielles. Son style unique et ses observations pénétrantes de la nature humaine en font une figure marquante de la littérature italienne.
