A Literary Tour of Italy | Tim Parks

1 post | 1 reading | 14 to read

An acclaimed author of novels and short stories, Tim Parks--who was described in a recent review as "one of the best living writers of English"--has delighted audiences around the world with his finely observed writings on all aspects of Italian life and customs. This volume contains a selection of his best essays on the literature of his adopted country. From Boccaccio and Machiavelli through to Moravia and Tabucchi, from the Stil Novo to Divisionism, across centuries of history and intellectual movements, these essays will give English readers, and lovers of the Bel Paese and its culture, the lay of the literary land of Italy.

ladyclassics Yessss!! Love seeing people spreading the beauty of Italian literature. It's so incredibly important for the history of western culture and literacy, yet often overlooked! ♡ 8y
