Produktbeschreibung

In "Nostalgia," Grazia Deledda explores the intricate tapestry of emotions that define human experience, particularly the profound yearning for a lost past. Set against the backdrop of her native Sardinia, the novel employs a lyrical and evocative prose style, skillfully weaving together themes of love, regret, and the inexorable passage of time. The narrative artfully balances realism with a poetic sensibility, immersing the reader in the struggles of its characters as they grapple with their desires and memories, encapsulating the essence of early 20th-century Italian literature that often reflected on societal constraints and personal aspiration. Grazia Deledda, a Nobel laureate and a pioneering figure in Italian literature, drew upon her own experiences and heritage to craft this poignant tale. Having faced numerous challenges as a female author in a male-dominated literary landscape, Deledda's works often reflect her deep-rooted understanding of rural life and the complexities of human relationships. Her unique voice was shaped by her upbringing in Sardinia, imbuing her narratives with authenticity and emotional depth that resonate with readers. "Nostalgia" is a testament to Deledda's mastery of storytelling and her ability to evoke deep-seated emotions. For readers seeking a profound exploration of the human condition, this novel offers an intimate glimpse into the interplay between memory and identity, making it a compelling addition to any literary collection.

Autorenporträt

Grazia Deledda nasce a Nuoro nel 1871, in una famiglia di piccoli proprietari terrieri. Interrotti gli studi precocemente, la giovane Grazia approfondisce da autodidatta la sua passione per la letteratura, giungendo a pubblicare alcuni suoi racconti sulla rivista L¿Ultima Moda, a soli 19 anni. Nel 1900 si trasferisce a Roma con il marito, conosciuto a Cagliari l¿anno prima: rimarrà nella città fino alla morte, avvenuta nel 1936. E¿ proprio nella capitale che i suoi capolavori vedono la luce: Elias Portolu (1903), Cenere (1904), L¿Edera (1908), L¿incendio nell¿oliveto (1918), Il segreto di un uomo solitario (1914), Canne al vento (1913), Marianna Sirca (1915), Il Dio dei viventi (1922), e infine Cosima, pubblicato postumo. Ma è il 1926 a rappresentare una data significativa per la scrittrice, chiamata a ritirare il premio Nobel per la letteratura: Grazia Deledda, prima donna a ricevere tale onorificenza, fu premiata per la sua prosa idealisticamente ispirata che con chiarezza plastica dipinge la vita della sua isola nativa e con profondità e simpatia si confronta con i problemi umani in generale.
