COMMENTS This book portrays the poor, embattled peasants in Abruzzo and their spirited yet doomed opposition to the ruthless expansion of fascism portrays the poor, embattled peasants in Abruzzo and their spirited yet doomed opposition to the ruthless expansion of fascism. This is the second version that Silone prepared after World War II, after Mussolini was no longer in power. In this new version -- presented in English for the first time in this publication, the community of peasants recedes into the background and Berado Viola comes forward as the agonist. We still have the sense of hearing a medieval legend, roughhewn and angular, reduced to its essential outlines as if by generations the story tellers in a village marketplace, but it is no longer a rowdy fable about peasants and the Devil. Instead the book in its permanent form becomes the legend of a saint who was tempted in the wilderness and who died in another Jerusalem for his people. Track Page Views With Auctiva's Counter
