Ten Italian Folktales by Italo Calvino

This collection of Italian folktales includes "Crack and Crook", "The Land Where One Never Dies", "Pome and Peel", "The Sleeping Queen", "The Enchanted Palace", "The King of Portugal's Son", "Apple Girl", "Joseph Ciufolo" and "Jump Into My Sack."
Italo Calvino, one of Italy's finest postwar writers, has delighted readers around the world with his deceptively simple, fable-like stories. Calvino was born in Cuba in 1923 and raised in San Remo, Italy; he fought for the Italian Resistance from 1943-45. His major works include Cosmicomics (1968), Invisible Cities (1972), and If on a winter's night a traveler (1979). He died in Siena in 1985.
