Christ Stopped at Eboli

by Carlo Levi
Christ Stopped at Eboli
Christ Stopped at Eboli

Poignant narrative of exile and Southern Italian life.

If you're drawn to introspective, beautifully written memoirs that paint vivid landscapes of lesser-known parts of the world, "Christ Stopped at Eboli" will captivate you. Carlo Levi's exile journey is a profound exploration of life in a forgotten region, providing a stark, emotional chronicle that resonates with the human condition. It's a book that stays with you, perfect for those who appreciate historical depth and cultural introspection.

Description

We're not Christians, Christ stopped short of here, at Eboli. Exiled to a remote and barren corner of Italy for his opposition to Mussolini, Carlo Levi entered a world cut off from history and the state, hedged in by custom and sorrow, without comfort or solace, where, eternally patient, the peasants lived in an age-old stillness and in the presence of death - for Christ did stop at Eboli.
