Representing the Huckleberry Finn of Italy, this is the most read classic in the country. Presented in the form of a diary, its subject is a young boy's life in Turin following Unification in 1870. The narrator, Enrico, writes vividly of school life and the bustling city of vegetable-sellers, chimney sweeps, and carpenters all around him. Like Huck Finn or Dickens, Cuore has been adapted into just about every conceivable medium—films, major television series, radio adaptations, plays, and even comic books. It is a set text on courses from University College London to Harvard and is even a cult classic in Japan in its incarnation as an anime film. From Henry Miller, who wrote a glowing monograph on the book, to world-famous tenor Andrea Bocelli, who wrote a song about it, this simple tale of childhood has inspired all kinds of people and continues to do so toda

REVIEW :
Very good book. It even helped us pick musical pieces. As a late-teen, that was one of the highlights for me. The stories he heard are the stuff of fairytales, legends and myths, full of strange happenings and strange people. I was able to apply what I learned in excellent scenarios the author hasand there are A LOT of scenarios from simple one's to complex one's. Great story that kept me wondering all the way to the end.. Good book if you are just getting started in creative correspondence.. While there are incredibly hot and kinky scenes throughout this book, there is also a good plot and great character development.
If you are a fan of Laurell K Hamilton, or Kim Harrison, but wish their books were a little (a lot?) kinkier, this is definitely the book for you. “A country the size of Italy won’t fit.”
