La larga vida de Marianna Ucrìa es una novela de la autora italiana Dacia Maraini, publicada en 1990. La historia se desarrolla en la Sicilia del siglo XVIII y narra la vida de Marianna Ucrìa, una duquesa sordomuda que, tras un matrimonio arreglado con su tío, encuentra en la lectura y el pensamiento ilustrado una vía para comprender el mundo y reclamar su libertad. La novela explora temas como la opresión femenina, la incomunicación y la búsqueda de la identidad en un contexto histórico marcado por las convenciones sociales y los prejuicios.
