Memories from the Twentieth Century

Luigi Pintor's collection presents three autobiographical works that intertwine personal memories with political themes. Through evocative prose, he reflects on his Sardinian childhood, the anti-Fascist resistance, and the decline of Italian culture post-war. The texts reveal a journey marked by irony and intransigence, as Pintor grapples with the complexities of his experiences. His narrative style, influenced by aphorism and fable, highlights the struggle to articulate both personal and political despair, while emphasizing the convictions that define his life.
