Description

Discover the private side of one of history's most famous playwrights. In February 1925, the 58-year-old Luigi Pirandello met Marta Abba, a beautiful actress less than half his age. This encounter sparked a profound connection that lasted until his death in December 1936. This collection provides a window into a relationship that was far more than a mere literary infatuation. Marta Abba served as Pirandello's confidante, muse, and artistic collaborator. Together, they worked toward his vision of reforming Italian theater during the Fascist regime. These letters reveal an unfulfilled and desperate passion that secretly consumed the world-famous author during his final years. Part of the Princeton Legacy Library, this volume offers readers an intimate look at the personal life of a literary giant. It captures the intense emotions and the deep bond between a master playwright and the woman who inspired his later work. This is an essential read for those interested in the biography of great novelists and the history of Italian theater.
