Italo Calvino - Neľahké životyBRAK
Italo Calvino, one of the most important Italian writers and thinkers of the twentieth century, author of the cult novel Invisible Cities, in his collection of three novels, Uncomfortable Lives, deals with pressing themes that are still highly topical today. For him, a painfully urgent question is the sustainability of the environment in the atmosphere of the building boom in post-war Italy. With the same insistence, he brings to life the dilemmas and subsequent failures of the intellectual in the creative process and the complex challenges of an uneasy life.
