Beschreibung
2021 Reprint of the 1961 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. For Cesare Pavese introspection was the only way of life. It led not to escape through fantasy but to an intensification and "purification" of experience through an anguished search for the truth about himself and the world in which he lived. Pavese, who took his life in 1950, is often considered as the most elusively complex Italian writer of his generation, which counts such noted authors as Ignazio Silone, Alberto Moravia and Elio Vittorini. Pavese's suicide at the age of 42, a few weeks after he had received the Strega Prize, Italy's highest literary award, shocked the literary world. These are his diaries, published after his death, which reveal much of the emotional/intellectual life that drove his life and art.

Über den Autor
Cesare Pavese was a novelist, poet, translator, editor, and literary critic, considered one of the most influential Italian intellectuals of the twentieth century. Born in 1908 in Santo Stefano Belbo, a small village in the Langhe region of Piedmont, he graduated from the University of Turin with a thesis on the poetry of Walt Whitman. Pavese played a key role in introducing Italian readers to major English and American writers, translating works by authors such as Joyce, Defoe, Melville, and Faulkner. As an editor at the prestigious Einaudi publishing house, Pavese oversaw the publication of novels by Natalia Ginzburg and Italo Calvino. A pioneer of literary neorealism, Pavese's work explores themes of loneliness and alienation, often featuring protagonists struggling to reconnect with a simpler rural past.Pavese battled depression throughout his life. In 1950, two months after winning the Strega Prize, Italy's most prestigious literary award, and following a failed love affair with Hollywood actress Constance Dowling, he tragically ended his life in a hotel room near Turin's railway station.
