Spellbinding Story Set in the 1860s submitted by sVfGI7Glt2pz7GZgVB90 on August 17, 2019, 7:36pm A graceful saga of the aristocratic Sicilian family set in during end of the Spanish colonization. This book portrays the melancholy of the death of the aristocracy, especially for the Sicilians who have developed an irredeemable sense of indifference and have survived numberless eras of foreign colonization. Deviation from the Italian neorealist narrative tradition, both stylistically and thematically. Also watch Luchino Visconti's rich adaptation---it won accolades at Cannes.
