Why is Maria ended up living in the house of Bonaria Urra, Soren is a mystery that it is hard to understand. The old and the girl walking the streets of the country followed by a trail of malicious comments, yet it is so easy Tzia Bonaria took Mary with him, will make it grow and will make his heir, asking in exchange for the presence and care for when you need it to her. Fourth daughter of his widowed mother, Mary is accustomed to think, her first, as the last. " For this continues to amaze the respect and attention of the country's old seamstress, who offered her a home and a future, but above all let live and do not seem to want anything for him. "Suddenly it was as if it were always like fili'e soul and soul, a less guilty of being a mother and daughter." Yet there is something in this old, dressed in black and in his long silences, there is the mysterious aura that accompanies it, along with the shadow of fear going on in the eye of the encounters. There are nights out that Mary listens but does not understand, and an almost millennial wisdom concerning the things of life and death. What I know is that Mary did not imagine is that Tzia Bonaria Urra sews clothes and comforts the soul, he knows the charms and bills, but when you need to be ready to go homes to bring a merciful death. His is the final dell'accabadora and loving gesture, the last mother. If the book ended about halfway through, this comment would be reduced simply to "gorgeous" or "masterpiece", it would be difficult to find other words to describe the story told and the way in which the author manages to bring us all ' inside of the story, that''50 years of Sardinian village where you play the story of Mary and her "adoptive mother". What a beautiful relationship between the two, which is abruptly interrupted when she discovers that the woman with whom he lives is a 'accabadora ", the one who ends up ... or the one that 'a boost to fate with the people now in the process of dying. Beautiful now, beautiful, poetic and realistic descriptions (I love the novels "realists") and the plot can not catch you.
But then, when Mary discovers this secret and can not accept it, he decided to go to Turin to act as nanny. And here the writer is lost. The novel is too hasty, as if he wanted to add something without quite knowing how to write. Too bad, because this part is very beautiful and interesting, if it were not so dismissive.
The finish, well, obvious, of course, but also the only truly possible.
Worth still much to be read. And this Italian author certainly has a great talent.
