Exquisite. . . a classic tour de force that will be around for a long time

Exquisite. . . a classic tour de force that will be around for a long time

Giorgio Bassani is one of the great witnesses of this century, and one of its great artists

Powerful new translations . . . Bassani began as a poet, and McKendrick's redelivery of this taut uncompromising fiction reveals resonance and generosity

Bassani's masterpiece

Giorgio Bassani (Author)
Giorgio Bassani was born in 1916. From 1938 onwards he became involved in various anti-fascist activities for which he was imprisoned in 1943. His works include The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles, and Five Stories of Ferrara (Within the Walls), which won the Strega Prize. The Garden of the Finzi-Continis was awarded the Viareggio Prize in 1962 and was made into a feature film.
