Tautly written and deeply moving, Enchantment is more than a simple coming-of-age story, it is a powerful, original novel from an important, compelling new author.
Pietro Grossi, writer and translator, was born in 1978 in Florence and currently lives and works in Tuscany. His collection of short stories, Fists, and his novel The Breakare also published by Pushkin Press.
"A fine writer" Tobias Jones, The Sunday Times
Praise for The Break:
"Small and perfectly formed ... reaching its end leaves the reader desirous to start all over again" Amanda Hopkinson, Independent
Praise for Fists:
"There is more power and pathos in this short piece of spare, timeless prose than in most densely-written novels" Daniel Hahn, Independent
