I vecchi e i giovani is a novel by the Italian playwright, novelist, and short story writer Luigi Pirandello, published in 1913. The novel explores themes of social decay, political corruption, and the tension between the older and younger generations in late 19th-century Italy. Through a complex narrative and multifaceted characters, Pirandello offers a scathing critique of Italian society and its institutions.
Luigi Pirandello was an Italian dramatist, novelist, poet, and short story writer most noted for his plays. He was awarded the 1934 Nobel Prize in Literature "for his bold and ingenious revival of dramatic and scenic art". Pirandello's works include novels, hundreds of short stories, and about 40 plays, some of which are written in Sicilian. Pirandello's tragic farces are often seen as forerunners of the Theatre of the Absurd.
