Jos itibaren Capoliveri LI, İtalya itibaren Capoliveri LI, İtalya

Vaclav Skala is left bitter and hard when, in 1895, his wife dies giving birth to his fourth son. Skala’s bitterness is transferred to his harsh treatment of his sons and to the way he looks at life. Moving from the past to the present when the youngest, Karel, is now an adult, this debut novel puts one in mind of other novels of the West by Annie Proulx or Kent Haruf.
