Through the life of the orphan Anna Malvas, who grows up in the house of her uncle Paolo Velena, we discover Sardinia at the end of the 20th century through simple and delicious vignettes, such as the description of a wedding dress and the aroma of the paper that wraps it, or how tomatoes are dried in the sun. The prose of Grazia Deledda, which is framed in the verismo also practiced by the writers Alessandro Manzoni or Luigi Capuana, unfolds with unusual beauty, and becomes a portrait of the life and society of a world that no longer exists. Grazia Deledda won the 1926 Nobel Prize for Literature.
