Bread and Wine, the second novel in Silone’s celebrated Abruzzo Trilogy and widely recognized as his masterpiece, portrays the return of Pietro Spina to his homeland of Abruzzo after over a decade in exile. Disguised as the priest Don Paolo Spada, Spina evades capture by the fascist police and assumes the mantle of leadership for the cafoni’s rebellion against the regime. As the story unfolds, these two identities of priest and revolutionary come to reveal the tragic tension between the ongoing social turmoil and the ultimate destiny of its participants. Bread and Wine captures both the intricacies and the simplicities of the human heart against the backdrop of an ordinary Italian village during the reign of Mussolini to create a stirring, deeply serious novel that stands as an achievement of aesthetic maturity.
