«I dodici abati di Challant» is the collection of three medieval novels by Laura Mancinelli published by Einaudi in paperback (379 pages, in Italian).
The three novels combine history and invention in an ironic and fantastical Middle Ages: twelve monks watch over a feudal lord heir to a castle, two women named Odilia embody religious life and a countess, a knight-poet and Frederick II cross paths in an adventure of feelings and destiny.
Includes «Il miracolo di santa Odilia» and «Gli occhi dell'imperatore». Second edition published on 28 June 2005.
For readers of literary fiction and historical novels with an ironic tone set in the Middle Ages.
Laura Mancinelli was an Italian writer, Germanist, medievalist and university professor.
