Novel
- Trama Giuditta and the Monsù - Costanza DiQuattro
Ibla, 1884.
At Palazzo Chiaramonte, a night in May brings with it two births instead of just one. Fortunato, abandoned in front of the door, and Giuditta, the last female of four sisters.
Daughter of the Marquis Romualdo, all silences, absences and uncountable women, and her wife Ottavia, with a gallows air and haughty phlegm, it is she who marks the beginning of this story. Skirting sunny courtyards and dimly lit rooms, lived-in kitchens and indolent summers, handed down recipes and stubborn passions, the novel goes as far as the century turns, when parents grow old and little ones grow up. There are those who marry a relative and those to Jesus Christ, but there are also those who will find love, the one that blows on young hearts, where it has always been: at home.
After "Donnafugata", Costanza DiQuattro invites you to browse through a new family album, made up of unspeakable secrets, bittersweet redemptions, and a lot of infinite sweetness.
