Set in the Langhe, in the Italian Piedmont, the novel follows Agostino, a young peasant who faces poverty and the harsh conditions of rural life. With sober prose, Fenoglio portrays social injustice, exploitation, and the loss of innocence in postwar rural Italy.
The work, originally published in 1954, is volume 99 of Einaudi's Nuovi Coralli collection.
For general readers and students interested in Italian literature and modern twentieth-century classics.
Giuseppe "Beppe" Fenoglio was an Italian writer, partisan and translator from English. The works of Fenoglio have two main themes: the rural world of the Langhe, where he was born and raised, and the Italian resistance movement, both largely inspired by his own personal experiences in them; equally, the writer has two styles: the chronicle and the epos.
