Nostalgia

Grazia Deledda

Publisher: DigiCat

Summary

Grazia Deledda's 'Nostalgia' is a profound reflection on the inexorable longing for one's homeland and the struggle with personal identity amidst societal expectations. Deledda's literary style, characterized by its lyrical prose and deep psychological insight, is poised against the pastoral backdrop of her native Sardinia, offering a stark contrast to the work's themes of loss and yearning. The narrative intricately weaves the internal conflict of the protagonist with the external pressures of tradition, encapsulating the complex dynamic between individual desires and cultural heritage. This special edition presented by DigiCat Publishing offers readers a carefully reproduced text that preserves the novel's rich literary legacy, ensuring that Deledda's voice continues to resonate within the canon of world literature.
Grazia Deledda, a Sardinian novelist and the Nobel laureate in Literature in 1926, wove tales that frequently contemplated the binding ties of geography and culture. Her own experiences, drawn from her upbringing and life in Sardinia, imbued her characters with authentic emotional depth and a tangible sense of place. 'Nostalgia,' much like her other works, is likely a canvas for Deledda's introspections on the vicissitudes of rustic life vis-
à-vis the pulls of modernity—a theme she explores with unerring precision. The novel can be regarded as a manifestation of Deledda's own contemplations on identity and belonging, rendered through her captivating storytelling.
This edition of 'Nostalgia' will appeal not only to enthusiasts of Deledda's oeuvre but also to those who appreciate literature that delves into the human psyche and the perennial tug-of-war between home and horizon. DigiCat's commitment to honor the literary heritage of this timeless classic ensures that both print and ebook formats uphold the integrity of Deledda's narrative craft. Scholars and casual readers alike will find 'Nostalgia' to be a moving piece that affirms Deledda's place as a significant voice in world literature and an elegant treatise on the human condition.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
