Under The Shadow Of Etna: Sicilian Stories is a collection of short stories originally written in Italian by Giovanni Verga and translated into English in 1895. The stories are set in Sicily and depict the daily life and struggles of the Sicilian people. The collection includes tales of love, betrayal, poverty, and superstition, all set against the backdrop of the majestic Mount Etna. The characters in the stories are vividly portrayed, and the descriptions of the landscape and culture of Sicily are rich and detailed. The book offers a glimpse into the lives of the Sicilian people in the late 19th century and provides insight into the social and economic conditions of the time. Overall, Under The Shadow Of Etna is a fascinating and engaging read for anyone interested in Italian literature, Sicilian culture, or social history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
