Literary Fiction Short Stories

Leonardo Sciascia

Authors: Leonardo Sciascia
Print type: BOOK

Description:

A collection of four novellas. In these stories, illusions about ideology and history are lost in mirth and in suffering, and innocence is abandoned. Each novella has a historical moment: the Allied invasion of Sicily; the Spanish Civil War; the death of Stalin; and the "events" of 1848.
