	Marcovaldo by Italo Calvino
	Price : Rs 399.00
	Your Price : Rs 319.20

Marcovaldo is an enchanting collection of stories, both melancholy and funny, about an Italian peasant`s struggle to reconcile country habits with urban life. Oblivious to the garish attractions of the town, Marcovaldo is the attentive recorder of natural phenomenon. The reader`s heart bleeds for Marcovaldo in his tenacious pursuit of lost domains, but the stories are full of mirth and fun. They lie between farce and fantasy, combining comical disasters with a surrealistic view of city life through the eyes of an outsider-Nothing, as always with Calvino, is quite as it seems.
