Product Information: - Title of Product: Lies and Sorcery by Morante, Elsa|McPhee, Jenny [Royal Edition] Author: Morante, Elsa|McPhee, Jenny Number of Pages: 800 Publication Year: 2023 Language: English Book Synopsis: - An Italian master's magnum opus about three generations of women, now in the first-ever unabridged English translation. Elsa Morante is one of the titans of twentieth-century literature--Natalia Ginzburg said she was the writer of her own generation that she most admired--and yet her work remains little known in the United States. Written during World War II, Morante's celebrated first novel, Lies and Sorcery , is in the grand tradition of Stendhal, Tolstoy, and Proust, spanning the lives of three generations of wildly eccentric women. The story is set in Sicily and told by Elisa, orphaned young and raised by a "fallen woman." For years Elisa has lived in an imaginary world of her own; now, however, her guardian has died, and the young woman feels that she must abandon her fantasy life to confront the truth of her family's tortured and dramatic history. Elisa is a seductive, if less than reliable, spinner of stories, and the reader is drawn into a tale of secrets, intrigue, and treachery, which, as it proceeds, is increasingly revealed to be an exploration of a legacy of political and social injustice. Throughout, Morante's elegant writing--and her drive to get at the heart of her characters' complex relationships and all-too self-destructive behavior--holds us spellbound.

This book is perfect as was the communication from the Seller! It is a gift for our new Electrician grandson & he will be thrilled. The packaging was excellent, especially considering the miles it had to travel to get to us: bubble wrap padding with cardboard reinforcements inside of a plastic envelope with the perfect amount of tape to secure it all. Kudos to Royal Editions : )
