pickItaly 1860, monasteries and convents are numerous, Garibaldi's revolutionaries are organizing.
"Soon it would be dark, convents became the despots of the panorama. It was against them that the fires in the mountains were kindled, fanned by men who were entirely like those who lived in convents, equally fanatical, equally closed-minded, just as eager to power, that is to say, as usual, idleness." Wonderful book, reviewed on Goodreads!

GabrielleDubois This Litsy is frustrating! 451 words are really not enough to talk about 100 000 words! 😠 Don't you think so? I always have to cut so much that I think what I write seems not undestanable. 7y
