5.0 out of 5 stars
Well worth the effort,
By BrooklynItalianTeacher (Brooklyn) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Il Visconte Dimezzato (Oscar Opere Di Italo Calvino) (Italian Edition) (Paperback)
You must be either a native speaker or a very advanced Italian speaker to read this, but it is well worth the effort. One of the coolest ideas for a story ever. A count returns from war literally half a man (half a face, half a torso and one leg). His other half becomes evil and terrorizes his small town. But is the good half really evil? And is the bad half all that bad? What happens when the two halves fight over a woman? A comment on the dual nature of man.
