Synopsis

Waterstones Rediscovered Classic for September 2015 Includes recently discovered new material.

In the spring of 1860, Fabrizio, the charismatic Prince of Salina, still rules over thousands of acres and hundreds of people, including his own numerous family, in mingled splendour and squalor. Then comes Garibaldi's landing in Sicily and the Prince must decide whether to resist the forces of change or come to terms with them.

- The best-selling novel in Italian history and one of the most influential novels of the last hundred years.
