Penguin Books has become synonymous with excellence world-wide. 'Italian Short Stories-Racconti Italiani' is no exception. It is in parallel text format, allowing both Italian and English readers to gain insight into post-war to mid-century Italian life. This is not a book for beginning students of Italian, as it requires more than a fundamental knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. The eight authors chosen present a wide range of topics, and as expected, provide insights into the life and culture of Italy. As a bonus, there is a 'Notes' section at the back of the book which translates slang phrases and colloquialisms. This book would add excellent supplemental material to the advanced student of the Italian language.
