'Novelle per un anno, vol. 06: In Silenzio' Summary
“In Silenzio” showcases Pirandello's masterful storytelling, using subtle irony and psychological depth to explore the intricacies of human experience. The stories weave tales of love, loss, and disillusionment, revealing the fragility of human connections and the often-unspoken truths that shape our lives. One story, “The Other Son,” narrates the emotional turmoil of a father whose son, believed dead in a war, returns home a stranger. Another, “The Scarf,” delves into the secrets and unspoken desires within a seemingly ordinary marriage. Pirandello’s prose is spare yet evocative, allowing the reader to connect with the characters’ inner struggles and ponder the broader philosophical questions that underpin their lives. These stories, while individual in their narratives, collectively reflect the author's fascination with the multifaceted nature of reality and the elusive quest for meaning.Book Details
