About this listen

Sono i primi anni del Novecento quando Lia lascia il suo paesino d'origine, nello sperduto entroterra sardo, per trasferirsi a Roma, una città in piena espansione. Nella capitale d'Italia, Lia andrà a vivere da un suo vecchio zio, ormai debilitato e bisognoso di cure. Nonostante i grandi viali illuminati e le luccicanti vetrine dei negozi, nonostante il trambusto dei tram e la folla delle vie del centro, Lia si sentirà però irrimediabilmente sola, persa in una città enorme che paradossalmente a volte le sembra un deserto.

Grazia Deledda (1871-1936) è stata una scrittrice italiana. Considerata una delle figure più importanti della letteratura italiana, vinse il Nobel per la letteratura nel 1927, seconda donna e prima italiana a vincere il prestigioso premio. Tra le sue opere più importanti, spesso ambientate in Sardegna, ricordiamo Canne al vento, La madre, La via del male, Cenere e Elias Portolu.
