Book Description: The University of Chicago Press, United States, 2003. Hardback. Book Condition: New. 209 x 148 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Natalia Ginzburg, arguably the most important woman writer of postwar Italy, always spoke of herself with irrepressible modesty. The woman who claimed she "never managed to climb up mountains" in fact wrote the history of 20th-century Italy through more than 20 books, chronicling fascism, war and the German occupation as well as the intimacies of family life. Ginzburg's stories, based in the small town of her childhood or set in Italy's cities, established her as a prolific and superb writer, and her husband's antifascist activities (which led ultimately to his torture and death at the hands of the Nazis) placed her squarely in the centre of Italy's turbulent political arena. Intensely reserved, Ginzburg said that she "crept toward autobiography stealthily like a wolf". But she did openly discuss her life and her work in an extraordinary series of interviews for Italian radio in 1990. Never before published in English, "It's Hard to Talk About Yourself" presents a vivid portrait of Ginzburg, in her own words, on the forces that shaped her remarkable life - politics, publishing, writing, literary influences and her family.Transcribed and lightly edited by her close friend Cesare Garboli and her granddaughter Lisa Ginzburg, these interviews will join Ginzburg's autobiography, "Family Sayings" as one of the most important records of her life, and, as the editors write in their preface, "the last, unexpected, original book by Natalia Ginzburg".
