    "Oh, Serafina! is a fable for adults about ecology, lunacy, and love. The protagonist, Augustus the Second Valle, is the grandson of the founder of the FIFA button factory in Lombardy. He inherits the factory, but his main interest is the birds who live in the surrounding gardens and whom he, like Saint Francis, talks to on a regular basis. Augustus also has a lusty sexual appetite, which he satisfies with one of the factory workers, Palmira. She connives to have him declared incompetent so she can sell the factory and pocket the proceeds. Augustus is committed to a mental hospital where he meets Serafina, a flower child, who dresses in Indian prints, plays a flute, and "receives messages from the universe." They are released and escape to her father's country villa, where they go to "live happily ever after" with the birds from the FIFA and asylum gardens"--

    "Recent college graduate Emiliano accompanies a 60 something writer, Vittorio, to a Milan fair where he will give a talk, breaking a 20 year long silence. "I have no house, only a shadow. But whenever you are in need of a shadow, my shadow is yours." This is a story, a love story, started forty years ago and never ended. And it is also the story of a trip to Italy in 2019, epic and comical, inebriated and amazed, very foolish, undertaken in a 1979 Jeep without a roof or doors or windshield by Emiliano De Vito, a just graduated summa cum laude in classical studies, and Vittorio Vezzosi, the writer of a single book, published in 1995 to worldwide acclaim, who has since shut himself up in a farmhouse above Florence without writing another word. While these two misfits of different generations are quarreling on their trip to Milan, they soon come to complement and understand one another in their differences"--

    Heir to the FIBA button factory in Lombardy, Augustus is profiting from Italy's postwar industrial boom. Yet the dreamy young man is far from your stereotypical industrialist. He is less interested in making money than in talking to the birds in the surrounding garden and in making love to a beautiful factory worker named Palmira. But when the money-hungry Palmira schemes to have him institutionalized, Augustus finds a new love among his fellow mental patients: flute-playing flower child Serafina. Can Augustus and Serafina find a way to break free and express their love of each other and of nature in this crazy world? Newly translated into English, Giuseppe Berto's charming 1973 novel Oh, Serafina! was one of the first works of Italian literature to deal with ecological themes while also questioning the destructive effects of industrial capitalism, the many forms spirituality might take, and the ways our society defines madness. This translation includes a foreword from literary scholar Matteo Gilebbi that provides biographical, historical, and philosophical context for appreciating this whimsical fable of ecology, lunacy, and love.

    Christ’s nemesis Judas Iscariot remains a shadowy figure in the four canonical gospels, which give contradictory reasons for why this rogue disciple betrays Christ. But how would Judas himself explain his motives? In Glory, Italian modernist Giuseppe Berto’s final novel, Judas finally tells his side of the story. From his perspective, Jesus is the betrayer, a would-be political activist and social reformer who fails to live up to his promises. And by fulfilling his predestined role in the drama of Christ’s death and resurrection, Judas himself is partly responsible for humanity’s salvation, enabling them to be redeemed by Christ’s sacrifice. As the novel probes into the psychological motivations behind his rejection of Jesus’ authority, Judas emerges as a compelling conflicted character, a man who seeks to have agency even when he knows his actions are being scripted by a higher power. Through Judas’s searing tortured monologues, this late masterpiece from one of Italy’s greatest writers investigates deep questions about the nature of faith, rebellion, fate, and free will.

    No detailed description available for "Glory". "Glory (La gloria) is Giuseppe Berto's testamentary novel. The first-person narration of the Gospel in the voice of Judas Iscariot constitutes Berto's closing argument in a life-long debate with Christianity. His interpretation of the gospel story is certainly unconventional, even oppositional. Rather than a rejection of the Christian faith in which he was raised and educated, however, Berto fashions an alternative account to the four canonical gospels that ultimately constructs a competing view of the human condition and of humanity's prospects for redemption. In Berto's parodic rendition of the Christian gospel, Judas, after a lifetime of tormented interrogation, decides to embrace the ambiguity of the human condition, which is, as he describes it, a liminal existence played out over a long and trying transition of unknown and unknowable duration, between the original paradise of the Garden of Eden and the final redemption at the end of days-a period otherwise known as history"--
