One of the most fascinating aspects of this book, are the light it throws on the Authors feelings towards the world of pets and wild animals. This shows very clearly the quality which Virginia McKenna possesses that makes it possible for her to play with lions and yet gain the affection of the shyest creatures. The book has great charm, it is written simply and vividly. It will certainly appeal to all animal lovers and many well also cause people, who till now have been unaware of the problems and rewards of human-animal relationships, to think about them. You will receive the book seen in the image. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. New Translation Edition. Paperback. translat4ed from the italian by Patrick Creagh. Antonio Magnano is the handsomest man in Catania, a veritable Adonis and, from chambermaid to ambassador's daughter, there is not a feminine heart that does not throb for him. In this book Brancati sketches a savagely ironic portrait of Mediterranean sexual attitudes observed in the forcing house of posturing Fascist machismo. A story at once ribaldly funny and quietly heartbreaking, it has since its first publication in 1949 proved to be brancati's most admired and popular novel. 279 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
