«La piel» is the novel by Curzio Malaparte published by FisicalBook in hardback, with 298 pages in Spanish.
In Naples occupied by the Allies during the Second World War, the city lies in ruins, with veterans begging for work, widespread prostitution and the smell of death. Malaparte, as a liaison officer, portrays the survival of a decaying society and creates a cynical and grotesque satire of the human being at war.
Work originally published in 1949 as «La pelle». This 1988 edition belongs to the Biblioteca de Novela Histórica collection (no. 5).
A read for fans of historical fiction and stories set during the Second World War.
Curzio Malaparte was an Italian writer, filmmaker, war correspondent and diplomat. Malaparte is best known outside Italy for his works Kaputt (1944) and The Skin (1949). The former is a semi-fictionalised account of the Eastern Front during the Second World War and the latter is an account focusing on morality in the immediate post-war period of Naples.
