Ed è un libro di paesaggi, ed è un libro di figure rapide e tutte vive, ed è un libro di parole precise e vere. Ed è un libro assurdo, misterioso, in cui ciò che si insegue, si insegue per inseguire altro, e quest’altro per inseguire altro ancora e non si arriva al vero perché». Italo Calvino *** Nelle Langhe, durante la guerra partigiana, Milton (quasi una controfigura di Fenoglio stesso), è un giovane studente universitario, ex ufficiale che milita nelle formazioni autonome. Eroe solitario, durante un’azione militare rivede la villa dove aveva abitato Fulvia, una ragazza che egli aveva amato e che ancora ama. Mentre visita i luoghi del suo amore, rievocandone le vicende, viene a sapere che Fulvia si è innamorata di un suo amico, Giorgio: tormentato dalla gelosia, Milton tenta di rintracciare il rivale, scoprendo che è stato catturato dai fascisti… Vrij kort, maar ongelofelijk krachtig boekje. Blijkbaar uit 1963, verschenen net na de dood van de auteur. Over een Italiaanse partizaan, rond 1944 in Piëmonte, die geobsedeerd geraakt door de mogelijke ontrouw van een vermeend liefje tot de oorlog hem inhaalt. Vooral de stijl is fantastisch: gortdroog-beschrijvend, maar daardoor des te intenser. Mooie ontdekking An Italian classic. The story of a young boy who in the midst of the partisan war took time off to find out whether his best friend had betrayed him with the girl of his dreams. An amazingly adventurous and epic walk through the misty mountains, always in the shooting field of fascist militia and a passionately disturbed mind: Miltons sufferings are not small. I liked this short novel, but I'm sure that it 'll strike an even clearer chord with Italian readers, given the historic context: After the capitulation of Italy in 1943 and the demission of Mussolini the country went through a tough period. Hitler's army answered with a brutal occupation of the north, Mussolini and his blackshirts stroke back ruthlessly after the humiliation. The conflict made deep cuts in Italian society and partisan resistance was among the fiercest in Europe. The overwhelming power of love makes it also appealing for young readers
Maar met alle verwijzingen naar het ridderlijk epos is Een privékwestie toch een uiterst moderne roman, met zijn eenvoudige, rake stijl en zijn typisch 20ste-eeuwse antiheld, die uiteindelijk niet rondzwerft om iets in handen te krijgen, maar om iets te weten te komen. Pertence à série publicada
"Beppe Fenoglio's A Private Affair is one of the great books of the Second World War and a masterpiece of modern Italian literature. Milton is the nom de guerre of the book's protagonist, a one-time student of English literature who, in the chaotic last years of the war, has joined a partisan band. Before the war, gangly Milton was in love with the beautiful Fulvia-Fulvia let him read poetry to her-and now he hears that a friend and fellow-partisan, handsome Giorgio, was sleeping with her at the time. Jealous and furious, Milton hastens to confront Giorgio, only to discover that he has been captured by the Germans. A Private Affair tells the store with Milton's mad quest-pursued through mud and fog and rain and terror, while barely evading German and Fascist patrols-to rescue his friend and settle a personal grudge from a lost world of peace. Italo Calvino praised the book for the "geometric tension" between its themes of love and war and for its unsettling and utterly persuasive mingling of absurdity and mystery. The British novelist Paul Bailey has called the novel's closing pages "superb and superbly exciting." A Private Affair is a peerless story of the violent heart and world"-- Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
