| Summary |
Essays on novelists who conveyed through various modes of narration and contrasting viewpoints the social and political realities in which they lived, identifying the war as the cause of those realities. Discusses how the fall of Fascism allowed writers and film-makers freedom of expression but also challenged them with the new realities of national life. During this period Neorealism was first widely applied to the novel as well as cinema. |
