La strada che va in città

No ratings yet

"The Road to the City" and "The Dry Heart." Each is narrated by a young woman who is in some way betrayed by, or the betrayer of, romantic love. In her inimitable, spare, and understated style, Ginzburg--the minimalist--manages to express extraordinary passions, disappointments, and truths of the heart. With a masterful understanding of the human, and particularly female, psyche, Ginzburg turns her meticulous and understated tales into rich, funny, profound, and psychologically gripping landscapes of the human heart.
