    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Lara Gochin Raffaelli has produced an expert new English translation of a masterpiece of Italian literature. L'Innocente (1892) is a psychological novel by the renowned Italian author Gabriele D'Annunzio.


    Set in fin-de-si?cle Rome and the southern Italian countryside, the story revolves around Tullio Hermil, a man entangled in his own moral failings. The novel delves into the psychological nuances of the characters and their relationships, making it an exploration of human emotions and moral dilemmas. D'Annunzio explores the depths of Tullio's psyche, exploring his twisted emotions, moral ambiguity, and descent into madness. The translation is faithful to D?Annunzio?s original, maintaining his lyrical rhythms and rich imagery, while updating previously censored content for modern readers. Key themes include the interplay of religious faith and the pursuit of sensual pleasure; the implications of patriarchal authority; and the pursuit of redemption in a morally ambiguous world


    Innocence presents an uncensored version of Gabriele D?Annunzio?s famous novel. Also, featuring a rich and informative introduction from Michael J. Subialka, the novel is a valuable contribution to the fields of comparative literature, Italian studies, fin-de-si?cle studies, and medical humanities.
