Introspection is central to Cesare Pavese's work, leading him on a profound quest for self-understanding and truth about the world. His diaries, published posthumously, unveil the emotional and intellectual struggles that shaped his life and artistry. Considered one of Italy's most complex writers, Pavese's tragic suicide in 1950, shortly after receiving the prestigious Strega Prize, left a significant impact on the literary community. This reprint of his original diaries offers a deep insight into his anguished yet enlightening perspective.
