Description
"Set in a sun-drenched Sicily, among the decadent Italian aristocracy of the late 1950s, Steven Price's LAMPEDUSA explores the final years of Giuseppe Tomasi, the last prince of Lampedusa, as he struggles to complete his only novel, The Leopard. In 1955, Tomasi was diagnosed with advanced emphysema; shortly after, he began work on a novel that would fail to be published before his death four years later. When The Leopard at last appeared, it won Italy's Strega Prize and became the greatest Italian novel of the century." -- Publisher's description.
