Sinossi
Un sorprendente ritratto di un'innocente sul punto di scoprire le crudeltà dell'amore. Ci sono sussurri qui del futuro lavoro di Elena Ferrante' Elizabeth Strout, dall'introduzione "La vita era una vacanza perpetua in quei giorni." È il culmine dell'estate nell'Italia degli anni '30 e la sedicenne Ginia è alla disperata ricerca di avventure. Così inizia un'amicizia fatale con Amelia, una modella d'artista elegante e sofisticata che la avvolge in un nuovo mondo abbagliante di artisti bohémien e inebriante libertà. Sotto l'incantesimo dei suoi nuovi amici, Ginia si innamora presto di Guido, un giovane pittore enigmatico. È l'inizio di una disperata storia d'amore, carica di false speranze e travolgente passione, destinata a durare non più del corso di un'estate. The Beautiful Summer è uno splendido racconto di formazione sull'innocenza perduta e il primo amore, di uno dei più grandi scrittori italiani. "Pavese, per me, è una fonte costante di ispirazione" Jhumpa Lahiri "Uno dei pochi romanzieri essenziali della metà del ventesimo secolo" Susan Sontag "[Pavese scrive libri di] straordinaria profondità, dove non si smette mai di trovare nuovi livelli, nuovi significati" Italo Calvino "Per il mio viaggio a Los Angeles, sto mettendo in valigia The Beautiful Summer, un breve resoconto dell'amore nell'Italia degli anni '30" Jessie Burton, autrice di bestseller come Il miniaturista e La musa.

Informazioni sull'autore
Cesare Pavese (Author)
Cesare Pavese was born in 1908 in Santo Stefano Belbo, a village in the hills of Piedmont. He worked as a translator (of Melville, Joyce and Faulkner) and as an editor for the publishing house Einaudi Editore, while also publishing his own poetry and a string of successful novels, including The House on the Hill and The Moon and the Bonfires. Never actively anti-Fascist himself, he was nevertheless sent into internal exile in Calabria in 1935 for having aided other subversives. He killed himself in 1950, shortly after receiving Italy's most prestigious literary prize, the Strega.
Elizabeth Strout (Introducer)

Dalla quarta di copertina
It's the height of summer in 1930s Italy and sixteen-year-old Ginia is desperate for adventure. So begins a fateful friendship with Amelia, a stylish and sophisticated artist's model who envelops her in a dazzling new world of bohemian artists and intoxicating freedom. Under the spell of her new friends, Ginia soon falls in love with Guido, an enigmatic young painter. It's the start of a desperate love affair, charged with false hope and overwhelming passion - destined to last no longer than the course of a summer. The Beautiful Summer is a gorgeous coming-of-age tale of lost innocence and first love, by one of Italy's greatest writers.
