Publisher's summary

Ambientato a Roma dal 1941 al 1947, il romanzo è un grande affresco corale che racconta gli orrori della guerra e della storia, "questo scandalo che dura da duemila anni". Al centro, le disgraziate vicende della maestrina Iduzza Ramundo, vedova mite e rassegnata, e del figlio Useppe, pischelletto dai grandi occhi azzurri spalancati sul mondo.

Pubblicato nel 1974, ottenne un enorme successo e infiammò violente polemiche, diventando immediatamente un caso politico e letterario. Dal romanzo è tratto il film omonimo, diretto da Luigi Comencini e interpretato da Claudia Cardinale.

Eccezzionale!

Storia avvincente e con personaggi straordinariamente interessanti. Sia la narrazione che il romanzo riescono a far immedesimare il lettore in quell'epoca.

Desperation made book

This book is a transparent window that looks at the desperion brought by war with extreme clarity. Reading it my thoughts went continuously to 'the grapes of wrath'.

Solo alcune parti belle

Troppo lungo con un personaggio principale insulso e inutile. Nessuna vera storia dal punto di vista drammatico, solo ritratti. Belle alcune parti durante la guerra e alcune parti di Useppe. interpretazione magnifica di Iaia Forte.
