Author: Giovanni Verga

This volume contains the long novella Sparrow, the short stories of Cavalleria Rusticana and five stories never previously translated into English: Temptation, The Schoolmaster, The Devil's Hand, The Gold Key and Comrades.

A great read for anyone interested in Sicily and Southern Italy. Verga is the master of the short-story form.
