But when Rocco discovers a letter written to Marta by a would-be suitor, he falsely accuses her of infidelity and banishes her from their home. Soon the whole village turns against the supposed adulteress, setting in motion a series of tragic events that culminates in the loss of Marta's family home and business, as well as the deaths of her father and newborn child. Plunged into poverty and treated as a social leper, with practically nothing else to lose, Marta is determined to claw her way back into a society bent on excluding her. The Outcast is an early masterwork from Nobel Prize-winning Italian author Luigi Pirandello that combines elements of Zolaesque naturalism with emerging modernist aesthetics. This fresh English translation, the first one in nearly one hundred years, showcases Pirandello's deft play with language and his use of irony"-- $c Provided by publisher. 648 7 $a 1870-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Outcasts $z Italy $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Social conditions $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Outcasts $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01049106 651 0 $a Italy $x Social conditions $y 1870-1918 $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Italy $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204565 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Historical fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a Fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 700 1 $a Masoni, Bradford A., $d 1974- $e translator. 700 1 $a Bini, Daniela, $d 1945- $e writer of foreword. 830 0 $a Other voices of Italy 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240217011806.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=574ADA4ACD6211EE9507C16149ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
