Novelle per un anno

This collection of 237 novelle, written between 1884 and 1936, is a major work of Italian literature that offers a vivid mosaic of characters, settings, and life experiences from a period spanning the turn of the 20th century. Though originally intended to include 365 stories, the project was unfinished due to the author's death, capturing a rich tapestry of humor, irony, tenderness, and reflection. Through these stories, readers gain a nuanced glimpse into Italian life during this era, with each character seeking to be heard in the author's imaginative universe. The accompanying musical frame is Salvatore Allegra's "Il pastore errante."
