«Passaggio in ombra» is the posthumous novel by Mariateresa Di Lascia, published by Feltrinelli in paperback (267 pages, in Italian).
A solitary woman, Chiara, recalls her childhood and youth in southern Italy. Memory reconstructs the figure of the great-aunt who protected her, the tensions of hypocritical relatives, and the forbidden love for a cousin. The novel alternates the choral portrait of a community with introspection and becomes an attempt to contain pain.
Published in 1995, winner of the Strega Prize that year; it is a posthumous work by the author. It belongs to the I narratori/Feltrinelli collection.
A read for those seeking contemporary Italian narrative with an introspective gaze and a family saga backdrop.
