The touching and painfully honest dialogue of a mother with her unborn child, written by the famous Italian journalist and writer Oriana Fallaci, has been delighting generations of readers around the world for decades.

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 novel depicts the tragic fate of Mariuta (Marije Zef) and her younger sister Rosuta. The work shocked contemporaries with its boldness in depicting taboo subjects, and is today considered a classic portrait of female suffering in rural Italy.
