During World War II, Elsa Morante and her husband, antifascist novelist Alberto Moravia, fled the German occupation in Italy. Out of this experience came History, the moving saga of a widow's courage. "A masterpiece. . . . One of the few novels in any language that renders the full horror of Hitler's war." - Alfred Kazin, Esquire.
Tells of one woman's fight for survival. "An epic novel that is the purest modern tragedy."--Alfred Kazin, Esquire
