«Il colore del sole» is the historical novel by Andrea Camilleri, published by Mondadori in hardback (122 pages, in Italian).
The narrator, Camilleri himself, travels to Syracuse and receives a mysterious note with a phone number; the investigation leads him to a remote farmhouse where a diary written by Caravaggio appears. The novel recreates the summer of 1607 that the painter spent between Malta and Sicily, with a language that imitates seventeenth-century Italian and delves into the artist's tormented consciousness.
The work belongs to Mondadori's Scrittori italiani e stranieri collection. The text is organized into sections headed by places such as Malta, Girgenti, Licata, Syracuse, Messina and Palermo.
A work for those who enjoy historical fiction about artists and the narrative of Andrea Camilleri.
Andrea Calogero Camilleri was an Italian writer best known for his Salvo Montalbano crime novels.
