Widow Cesira and her daughter Rosetta flee bombed Rome to their native Ciociaria, where they experience hunger, fear and misery. Liberation brings tragedy: Rosetta is raped by Moroccan soldiers, destroying their faith in God and people.
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.
The novel follows the declining Roman bourgeois family of Ardengo over the course of several days: widow Mariagrazia, lover Leo, son Michele, and daughter Carla – all trapped in apathy, lies, sexual manipulation, and moral indifference.
The novel is an important representative of verismo, Italian realism, and depicts the lives of people from the south of Italy, especially the conflicts between the poor peasantry and the decaying aristocracy.
