Newly Translated from the Italian By Harvey Fergusson II. A Note On The Revision By Ignazio Silone.Afterword By Marc Slonim. 287 pages. paperback. CT186. Cover: Milton Glaser. keywords: Signet Classic Paperback Italy Translated Literature 20th Century. DESCRIPTION - Italy, 1938: a land deadened by dictatorship and deafened by propaganda for approaching war. This is the homeland to which Pietro Spina returns after fifteen years of exile. He is a revolutionary disguised as a priest, and he is on a mission for his people and for truth. His journey takes him from the pavements of Rome to the lovingly tended earth of the impoverished countryside, where he rediscovers a way of life attuned to the eternal rhythms of planting and harvesting, the enduring pulsebeat of birth and death. Slogans and political dogma fade beside the blossoming of a vision in which flesh and spirit are as inseparably joined as the bread and wine that give this masterpiece its title and its theme. Bread and Wine, now revised by the author to bring to sharp focus its lasting truths, is at once a panoramic portrait of Italian society and a moving moral lesson for our times. '. the best [novel] Silone has ever written and the most representative of European fiction between the two world wars.' - - - Marc Slonim. 'This novel reveals Silone's true stature as one of the most truly contemporary and significant writers of our time.' - Philip Rahv. inventory #31221. N° de réf. du vendeur z31221
