Sobre este artículo
London, UK Random House: Vintage Classics, 1994. Paperback First Edition Thus [1994], Fourth Printing. Very Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of a tanning to the text pages (a little heavier at the outside edges); else flawless. The binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, or labels. Not quite pristine, but remains Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (7.8 x 5.1 x 0.5 inches). 150 pages. Translated by Tim Parks. Weight: 4.6 ounces. First Edition Thus [1994], Fourth Printing. Trade Paperback.
Sinopsis
Assembled and published posthumously, The Road to San Giovanni offers Calvino’s reflections on his own life and work. These five elegant “memory exercises” provide a varied and revealing portrait of a writer who was deeply wary of autobiography: from the title essay’s moving evocation of the author’s relationship with his father — couched in a lyrical sketch of Calvino’s childhood home — to a charming account of teenage years spent in the glow of the cinema screen, to Calvino’s declaration of purpose as a writer in the final essay’s visionary fragments. Heartfelt, affecting, and wise, The Road to San Giovanni will appeal to Calvino’s existing fans and win new ones.
