Synopsis

Melchiorre Carta saliva la montagna, ritornando al suo ovile. Era un giovane pastore biondastro, di piccola statura; una ruga gli si disegnava fra le sopracciglia folte e nere, che spiccavano nel fosco giallore del suo volto contornato da una rada barbetta rossiccia. Anche la sopragiacca di cuoio del suo costume era giallognola, e il cavallino che egli montava era rossastro, tozzo, angoloso e pensieroso come il suo padrone. Melchiorre era un giovine di buoni costumi e d'ottima fama; molto spensierato ed allegro non lo era mai stato, ma da qualche tempo si mostrava più taciturno del solito, e si sentiva quasi malvagio, perché sua cugina Paska lo aveva abbandonato alla vigilia delle loro ...

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Deledda was born in Nuoro, Sardinia, into a middle-class family, to Giovanni Antonio Deledda and Francesca Cambosu, as the fourth of seven siblings. She attended elementary school (the minimum required at the time) and was then educated by a private tutor (a guest of one of her relatives) and moved on to study literature on her own. It was during this time that she started displaying an interest in writing short novels, mostly inspired by the life of Sardinian peasants and their struggles. Her teacher encouraged her to submit her writing to a newspaper and, at age 13, her first story was published in a local journal. Some of Deledda's early works were published in the fashion magazine L'ultima moda between 1888 and 1889. In 1890 Trevisani published Nell'azzurro (Into the Blue), her first collection of short stories. Deledda's main focus was the representation of poverty and the struggles associated with it through a combination of imaginary and autobiographical elements. Her family wasn't particularly supportive of her desire to write.
