«Uno, nessuno e centomila» is the novel by Italian writer Luigi Pirandello, in paperback (160 pages, in Italian).
When his wife comments on his nose, Vitangelo Moscarda, called Gengè, discovers that others see him differently from how he sees himself. He then decides to destroy the images others have of him, but his search for an authentic self fragments him into many versions of himself, in a reflection on identity and the impossibility of knowing oneself.
Complete edition edited by Italo Borzi and Maria Argenziano, in the Biblioteca Economica Newton collection.
Will appeal to readers of Italian literature and those who appreciate a philosophical novel about identity and perception.
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.
