She So Loved
First Rizzoli edition (2000), new Einaudi edition (2012).
“No battles are lost as long as there are still books like those written by Melania Mazzucco.”
El País
“Melania Mazzucco writes with epical strenght and great levity, drowing facts and characters with care, irony and emotional involvement.”
Süddeutsche Zeitung
Annemarie Schwarzenbach (1908-1942) was a writer, archeologist, photographer, journalist, an educated, refined and beautiful woman, who “seemed to embody the whole history of Europe”. Daughter of a wealthy industrialist from Zurich, she could enjoy a comfortable and gracious living; but she’d rather be true to herself and chose a scandalous life, always running away, always travelling, from Persia to the States, to Congo, searching for “anything else but herself”. Smartly moving along documentary truth and literary fiction, Mazzucco saves from oblivion an impressive female character, full expression of the twentieth century, taking it into a powerful narrative.
