Beschreibung

Para Zironi, l'ultimo fraticello rimasto fra le rovine del convento di Monte Nieddu, scendeva tranquillo il sentieruolo della foresta, andando a cercarsi da vivere poichè nessuno più pensava a portargliene lassù. Tutti oramai credevano che gli avanzi del convento fossero stati già diroccati per ordine di uno speculatore che tagliava le foreste di Monte Nieddu: fino a qualche mese prima solo un pastore si ricordava di frate Gerolamo ancora vivo e svelto lassù come la lucertola fra le rovine, e ogni tanto andava ad assistergli la messa e gli recava in dono un vaso di latte cagliato o un pezzo di ricotta avvolto nell'asfodelo; ma negli ultimi tempi anche i pastori erano stati cacciati dalla...

Autor

Deledda was born in Nuoro, Sardinia, into a middle-class family, to Giovanni Antonio Deledda and Francesca Cambosu, as the fourth of seven siblings. She attended elementary school (the minimum required at the time) and was then educated by a private tutor (a guest of one of her relatives) and moved on to study literature on her own. It was during this time that she started displaying an interest in writing short novels, mostly inspired by the life of Sardinian peasants and their struggles. Her teacher encouraged her to submit her writing to a newspaper and, at age 13, her first story was published in a local journal. Some of Deledda's early works were published in the fashion magazine L'ultima moda between 1888 and 1889. In 1890 Trevisani published Nell'azzurro (Into the Blue), her first collection of short stories. Deledda's main focus was the representation of poverty and the struggles associated with it through a combination of imaginary and autobiographical elements. Her family wasn't particularly supportive of her desire to write.
