5.0 out of 5 stars
Natalia Ginzburg at her best
It was wonderful to read these nice translations of Natalia Ginzburg's essays that she had written for Italian journals/newspapers over the years. 'The Little Virtues(essays)' and 'The Wrong Door(plays)' are two other books written by her that are especially engrossing and entertaining. Can't get enough of her wit, wisdom and compassion :) Very highly recommended!

Still wondering...
This author was recommended by [...] Italian Language Guide and, having read and liked several other recommendations of this Guide, I was eager to submerge myself still deeper in Italian Culture. Perhaps I selected poorly. "A Place to Live" was claimed to be one of her best works but I just couldn't get the relationship that I was looking for...perhaps the one she was...

Perhaps I selected poorly. "A Place to Live" was claimed to be one of her best works but I just couldn't get the relationship that I was looking for...perhaps the one she was looking for also. I know I expect a lot from my reading and am often disappointed. I may still read another of her works... hopefully this one won't leave me still wondering.
