Cardello (English Edition)

----- The second in a collection of classic Italian novels in translation. ----- This is the heartwarming story of a poor, innocent boy in late nineteenth-century Sicily, who learns about the truly important things in life through three different jobs, each more demanding and rewarding than the previous one, on the way to his ultimate fate. He begins to understand how every event in his life, big and small, even the seemingly insignificant, forms a link in the chain that binds him to his destiny. Does he have a hand in his own ultimate fate, or is he swept along by some unforeseen force? Is the outcome inevitable? If not, what would he give in love, sweat, tears to change it?
