(Creating shockwaves when first published in Italy in the ...)
Creating shockwaves when first published in Italy in the 1980s, this is a historical novel based on a true account of a grisly murder in turn-of-the-century Verona. In her relentless narrative based on interviews and contemporary accounts, Maraini has brought a long-submerged story of injustice and oppression to light. The fact that Isolina became pregnant by her lieutenant lover and refused to have an abortion was published in newspapers after the murder. Also known, but not reported, was the suspicion that she was probably murdered by soldiers who, protecting their comrade's reputation, tried to abort the pregnancy. The crime could easily have been solved, but evidence was destroyed by the state in efforts to defend the image of the military. Dacia Maraini is one of the best known writers in Italy. Her previous prize-winning novel, The Silent Duchess, sold 200,000 copies in Italy and was on the bestseller list for seventy weeks.

(Bagheria è un racconto lucido e sincero affidato alla me...)
Bagheria è un racconto lucido e sincero affidato alla memoria. Lâautrice, bambina, arriva in Sicilia dopo aver trascorso due anni in un campo di concentramento giapponese. Con infantile intensità vive la scoperta delle proprie origini, della nobile famiglia materna, così radicata in quel paesaggio fatto di palazzi baronali e case che sembrano reggersi una allâaltra. Nellâomertà delle pareti domestiche si consumano rapporti tortuosi, dove il prezzo da pagare ricade sempre sulle donne, sacri. cate alla âleggeâ dellâonore in una società che tutto sa, ma. finge di non vedere. Una narrazione condotta con geloso pudore dei sentimenti e unâattenzione ostinata per i ritmi musicali della parola.

(In Bagheria, Dacia Maraini revisits the landscape of earl...)
In Bagheria, Dacia Maraini revisits the landscape of early memory. She describes Sicily in sensuous detail, the town of Bagheria, and the ancestral villa to which she returned as a child after two horrific years of imprisonment with her family in a Japanese concentration camp. The Villa Valguarnera and Maraini recalls the spiritual struggles and her rebellion against the elitism of her class. She also discusses her experience of child abuse. Bagheria is also a tale of corruption: centuries of the town's past unfold alongside Maraini's family history as she details the involvement of the Mafia in the architectural decimation of Bagheria in the 1970s.
