Innocence

Innocence is set in the 1950s, when Italy was picking up the pieces after the war. Chiara Ridolfi is the guileless daughter of a decrepit Italian family. Barney is her practical English girlfriend, who can sum up a man, she says, in one firm hand-grip. Salvatore is a penniless doctor from the south, who thinks he is proof against politics, social conscience and tenderness. Chiara's cousin, Cesare, says very little, which gives him time to think.. Reissued with a beautiful new jacket, as part of our revitalisation of Fitzgerald's entire backlist.. In keeping with series style of the reissues, this will look extremely beautiful and collectable.
