«Sabates italianes» is Henning Mankell's existentialist novel, published by Tusquets Editores S.A. in paperback (376 pages, in Catalan).
Fredrik Welin, a retired doctor, lives isolated on a Swedish island until Harriet, his former love, appears gravely ill to claim a promise from their youth: to take her to a pond in the north. The journey confronts him with his regrets, with Louise, the daughter he never knew, and with the catastrophe that ruined his career.
The work, originally published in Swedish as 'Italienska skor' (2006), belongs to the L'Ull de Vidre collection (number 26).
For readers of literary fiction and existential drama, including Henning Mankell fans looking for something different from his crime novels.
