Luigi Pirandello; Agrigento (28 June 1867 – Rome 10 December 1936) was an Italian dramatist, novelist, poet, and short story writer whose greatest contributions were his plays.
He was awarded the 1934 Nobel Prize in Literature for "his bold and ingenious revival of dramatic and scenic art"
Pirandello's works include novels, hundreds of short stories, and about 40 plays, some of which are written in Sicilian. Pirandello's tragic farces are often seen as forerunners of the Theatre of the Absurd.
Chiunque potrebbe immedesimarsi in almeno uno dei racconti dell’autore, per me, più potente di tutti i tempi. Ho trovato questo libro in una bancarella dell’usato ed è stato bellissimo rileggere dei racconti che hanno segnato la mia adolescenza, sarà un tesoro prezioso che terrò per sempre 💛
