Charity shop beauty. I'm sure I've read another by this author.

#FallIsBooked Day 4: #Bonfire reminded me of this #NYRB title I bought during the one-day sale last year.

A boy grows up in a small town in Italy, but leaves for America when he grows up and WW2 breaks out. After making his fortune, he returns to the small town to learn the fate of his childhood friends and the town. While outward appearances are only changed mildly, he quickly learns that the war has had a huge impact on the lives of the people he knew. A beautiful, nostalgic, and poignant short novel.

Because I loved The Harvesters, I looked forward to reading this book. Pavese writes beautifully, some of his sentences still linger in my mind, but the memories of the narrator who, after a stay in America returns to his native Italy, did appeal less to me. #1001books
