Rome was near. The November moon illuminated the Campagna—an immense mother-o'-pearl moon, clear and sad. The violence of the express train was met by the violence of a raging wind. Regina dozed and was dreaming herself still at home; the rumble of the train seemed the clatter of the mill upon the Po. Suddenly Antonio's hand pressed hers and she awoke with a start. "We are near arriving," said the young husband.

Autorenporträt
Grazia Deledda (1871-1936) was an Italian writer who achieved international acclaim and recognition for her literary works, particularly her novels and short stories. She was born in Nuoro a town located in Sardinia, Italy, which would later serve as a significant influence on her writing. This regional focus would become a hallmark of her writing, distinguishing her from many of her contemporaries in Italian literature. Her breakthrough came with the novel ""Elias Portolu"" (1903), which garnered critical praise and established her reputation as a significant voice in Italian literature. Many of Deledda's works explore themes such as love, longing, fate, and the clash between tradition and modernity. In 1926, Grazia Deledda became the first Italian woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, a testament to the international recognition of her literary achievements. The Nobel Committee praised her ""idealistically inspired writings which with plastic clarity picture the life on her native island [Sardinia] and with depth and sympathy deal with human problems in general."" Deledda's writing style is characterized by its lyrical prose and vivid descriptions of nature, which serve as both a backdrop and a reflection of her characters' inner lives. Her works continue to be celebrated for their insightful portrayal of Sardinian culture and their exploration of universal themes that resonate across cultures and time periods. Throughout her career, Grazia Deledda wrote numerous novels, short stories, and essays, leaving behind a rich literary legacy that continues to inspire readers and scholars alike. Her contributions to Italian literature and her ability to capture the complexities of human experience have cemented her place as one of the foremost writers of her generation.
