The Betrothed by Alessandro Manzoni
Set in Lombardy during the wars, famine and plague of 1628-30, The Betrothed tells the story of two young lovers. Following them through exile, plague and inner suffering, it shows great richness of characterization and a profound interest in the workings of history. Renzo and Lucia's story is also a compelling political analysis of their times; published in 1827, The Betrothed is the first modern Italian novel.| SKU | Unavailable |
