Translated from the Italian by Angus Davidson. 376 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Honi Werner. keywords: Europe Italy Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - 'Like other novels by Moravia, Time of Desecration is set in Rome, its central character is a woman, its action concerns the contamination of sex by money, politics, guilt, and revenge - or vice versa. The prose is precise, seemingly effortless, unmannered, a deft instrument for analysis and definition; yet the sharp outlines and primary colors in Moravia's work mask interior violence reminiscent of a Pirandello play. External description is sparse. But there are two rather striking differences in Time of Desecration. The story is told in the form of an interview - that is, in questions formulated by the narrator I and answered by the heroine Desideria. Moreover the heroine, in addition to (or, rather, as a subtraction from) the usual motivations of a fictional character, is subject to authoritative direction from a disembodied inner Voice, which tells her in great detail what to feel, think, and do.' - New York Times. inventory #5747 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket.…
