Mario Fortunato, for years one of the most controversial protagonists of Italian public life, currently the controversial director of the Italian Institute of Culture in London, published his first novel The First Sky in 1990.
Through these stories, Moravia explores themes of social inequality, the struggle for survival, and human frailty, portraying them with a mix of humor, irony, and realistic observation.

The Scent of the Night (2001) is part of the Inspector Salvo Montalbano series. Set in the fictional Sicilian town of Vigàtu, the novel combines crime intrigue with Camilleri's signature humor, social commentary, and vivid depictions of Sicily.
