Synopsis

A landlord falls in love with a tenant who is tied to another and cannot return his love; the perfect woman organizes her friends’ weddings yet cannot find love herself; and the eternal love triangle separates two lifelong friends. In each of these tales, Luigi Pirandello captures all the pain and tragedy of loveless love. Nobel Prize-winning Luigi Pirandello is one of Italy’s most distinguished and influential literary figures.

An elegantly designed series of exceptional books.
