Ignazio Silone (1900–1978)
Autor(a) de Bread and Wine (Signet Classics)
About the Author
Silone was 15 years old when an earthquake in his native Abruzzi killed his mother and five of his brothers. Before he was 20 he had established himself in Rome as editor of a socialist weekly. In 1921 he went off on the first of many trips to the Soviet Union and became a founding member of the mostrar mais Italian Communist party. Under fascism he hid at first, and then, in 1930, he fled to Switzerland, at which time, however, he also broke with the Communist party. The novels that made him world famous as an anti-Fascist were Fontamara (1930) and Bread and Wine, the latter first published in English in 1936 and then in 17 other languages as well as in Italian. Silone was virtually unknown in Italy until after World War II, by which time he had undergone a radical spiritual transformation that is explained in a very moving essay, "Emergency Exit," included in Richard Crossman's The God That Failed (1950).

Fatal error: Call to undefined function isLitsy() in /var/www/html/inc_magicDB.php on line 425- Ignazio Silone was the pen name of Secondino Tranquilli, who was born in the Abruzzo region of Italy and lost many family members, including his mother, in the 1915 Avezzano earthquake. Silone was a founding member of the Italian Communist Party in 1921, and became one of its clandestine leaders during Mussolini's Fascist regime. Silone was expelled from the party due to his opposition to Stalinism. He went to Switzerland for his health and began to write. His novels Fontamara, Bread and Wine and The Seed Beneath the Snow form the Abruzzo Trilogy. He returned to Italy in 1944 and edited a journal, Tempo Presente.
