Memoir of Italo Svevo
Angebote / Angebote:
The writer Italo Svevo had many things in common with other writers: a long struggle for recognition, a mutually respectful friendship with a noteworthy author (in Svevo's case, James Joyce), and a long list of neuroses. His choice of a wife, however, was anything but common. Livia Veneziani Svevo tirelessly worked on her husband's behalf after his tragic early death and also penned this remarkable portrait of a serious artist and a loving (if quirky) marriage. Memoir of Italo Svevo illuminates its subject's darkly comic novels, telling the story of how a successful businessman in his middle age, obsessed with smoking as much as his abandoned literary ambitions, somehow became one of the great authors of the twentieth century.
