About this book

Prisoners of Hope: The Silver Age of the Italian Jews, 1924-1974 by Hughes, H. Stuart. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780674707276.

The eminent cultural historian H. Stuart Hughes examines the works of Italo Svevo, Alberto Moravia, Carlo Levi, Primo Levi, Natalia Ginzburg, and Giorgio Bassani--six Italian prose writers of Jewish or part-Jewish origin--and gracefully shows how these writers combine in various measures their ancestral Jewish heritage with recent experiences of antisemitic persecution.
