Stereotyped as the land of crime and intrigue, Italy has been the setting of many international best-selling mysteries. Politically committed, narratively sophisticated, and supremely enjoyable, the best Italian mysteries explore the dark side of Italy’s present, challenge ideas of justice, and seduce readers with the evocation of la dolce vita. Join us to discuss Leonardo Sciascia’s Il giorno della civetta (1961), an unconventional mystery and a literary classic set in 1960s Sicily. In this short work of fiction, eerily prescient of the many anti-mafia prosecutions to come, the murder of a building contractor becomes the occasion for a complex investigation of Italian politics and society in the shadow of organized crime. Required reading: Il giorno della civetta by Leonardo Sciascia.
Instructor: Maria Grazia Lolla
