Nostalgia (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book is an autobiographical novel by Grazia Deledda, a Nobel Prize laureate, which explores the themes of displacement and nostalgia in early 20th century Italy. Set in Rome amidst the social, political and economic changes following Italian unification, the story follows Regina, a young woman who leaves her small town to join her husband in the metropolis. The novel offers a poignant account of Regina's struggle to adjust to urban life while longing for the familiar rhythms of her former home. Deledda astutely examines the emotional and psychological impact of relocation and the conflicting desires to assimilate and preserve one's cultural identity. Through Regina's journey, this book provides a nuanced exploration of the complex interplay between tradition and modernity, self and society, and the often elusive nature of home in a rapidly evolving world.
