I Malavoglia

I Malavoglia is one of the great landmarks of Italian Literature.It is so rich in character, emotion and texture that it lives forever in the imagination of all who read it.What Verga called in his preface a 'sincere and dispassionate study of society' is an epic struggle against poverty and the elements by the fishermen of Aci Trezza, told in an expressive language based on their own dialect.

'This is a tragic tale of poverty, honour and survival in a society where the weak go to the wall unmourned.it is a powerful story.'
