Subject: Literature Giovanni Guareschi
This is the first wholly new collection of Don Camillo stories to be translated into English for over forty years – novel enchantments for those who already know the hot-headed village priest and his adversary Peppone, the communist mayor, and a very special entré for those who don't.
Set against the background of the rise and fall of fascism (Mussolini, Hitler) and post-war communism (Stalin, Khrushchev and Mao's China), the author looks down with hawk's-eye vision into the lives of the ordinary people of La Bassa, and delivers his message with great humour and insight - to cut through prejudice and political correctness and follow one’s inner voice rather than any political dogma.
'So concerned with the trivialities of everyday life … and so shrewd.' London Evening News
