Product Information

"Thefirst English translation in more than fifty years of Alessandro Manzoni's masterpiece,a work of foundational Italian literature on par with the Divine Comedy and the Decameron."- The Wall Street Journal "An exemplary historical novel" ( The New Yorker ) from the father of modern Italian literature, The Betrothed receives its first new English-language translation in fifty years, hailed as "alandmark literary occasion" by Jhumpa Lahiri. ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR- The New Yorker The Betrothed is a cornerstone of Italian culture, language, and literature. Published in its final form in 1842, The Betrothed has inspired generations of Italian readers and writers. Giuseppe Verdi composed his majestic Requiem Mass in honor of Manzoni. Italo Calvino called the novel "aclassic that has never ceased shaping reality in Italy" while Umberto Eco praised its author as a "most subtle critic and analyst of languages." The Betrothed has been celebrated by Primo Levi and Natalia Ginzburg, and is one of Pope Francis's favorite books. But, until now, it has remained relatively unknown to English readers. In the fall of 1628, two young lovers are forced to flee their village on the shores of Lake Como after a powerful lord prevents their marriage, plunging them into the maelstrom of history. Manzoni draws on actual people and events to create an unforgettable fresco of Italian life and society. In this greatest of historical novels, he takes the reader on a journey through the Spanish occupation of Milan, the ravages of war, class tensions, social injustice, religious faith, and a plague that devastates northern Italy. But within Manzoni's epic tale, readers will alsohear powerful echoes of our own day. Michael F. Moore's dynamic new translationof The Betrothed brings to life Manzoni's timeless literary masterpiece.

Reviews
"An important new translation . . . It feels strange to have had a bona fide canonical classic hiding in plain sight for all these years. But with Mr. Moore's vigorous and companionable translation, the book is now here for everyone to see . . . Now the English-speaking world can discover what the fuss is all about." --The Wall Street Journal "Michael F. Moore's new version strikes me as remarkable, extraordinarily well pitched, finding the right levels of colloquialism and eloquence. Moore preserves the heteroglossia of the novel, its rich impasto of spoken and written styles whose incompatibility is one of its deep subjects. And he manages to catch Manzoni's narrative voice, which is not easy to characterize." --Peter Brooks, New York Review of Books "This is not just a book; it offers consolation to the whole of humanity." --Giuseppe Verdi "[Manzoni is] the only Italian literary figure whom his countrymen consider worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Dante . . . It is almost impossible to accept this book as a first novel. Through the virtuosity with which its creator deploys and refines his raw materials, the story of Renzo and Lucia . . . consistently transcends its considerable potential for sentimentality . . . The mélange of tones, styles and methods within the book makes the experience of reading it one of the most rewarding--and simultaneously most challenging--in nineteenth-century fiction." --from the Introduction by Jonathan Keates, "An important new translation . . . It feels strange to have had a bona fide canonical classic hiding in plain sight for all these years. But with [Michael F.] Moore's vigorous and companionable translation, the book is now here for everyone to see. . . . Now the English-speaking world can discover what the fuss is all about." --The Wall Street Journal " The Betrothed emerges in the new translation as a work that anyone who cares about nineteenth-century fiction should want to read. It has the great events--war, famine, plague--and the record of their impact on humble people. It has the sentimentality: demure maidens and brave lads and black-hearted villains. It has passages of lyrical description and passages where the specificity of detail verges on the sociological. It has the prolixity, annoying to some, comforting to others. In other words, it is an exemplary historical novel." -- The New Yorker "Michael F. Moore's new version strikes me as remarkable, extraordinarily well pitched, finding the right levels of colloquialism and eloquence. Moore preserves the heteroglossia of the novel, its rich impasto of spoken and written styles whose incompatibility is one of its deep subjects. And he manages to catch Manzoni's narrative voice, which is not easy to characterize." --Peter Brooks, The New York Review of Books "This is not just a book; it offers consolation to the whole of humanity." --Giuseppe Verdi
