Latest Review: La Follia Improvvisa di Ignazio Rando

Our latest review is of Dario Franceschini’s La Follia Improvvisa di Ignazio Rando, which is available in Italian from Bompiani, but has yet to be translated into English.

As reviewer Lucinda Byatt notes, Franceschini’s first novel, Nelle vene quell’acqua d’argento received several prizes, including the Premio Opera Prima Città di Penne and Premio Bacchelli, so he’s got a growing reputation . . .
