Clash of Civilizations Over an Elevator in Piazza Vittorio - Paperback
Description
by Amara Lakhous (Author), Ann Goldstein (Translator)
At once a bittersweet comedy and a drama of racial identity, this book brings to life the hilarious imbroglios of the modern metropolis.
Piazza Vittorio is home to a polyglot community of immigrants who have come to Rome from all over the world. But when a tenant is murdered in the building's elevator, the delicate balance is thrown into disarray. With language as colorful as the neighborhood it describes, each character in this choral novel takes their turn "giving evidence," and the stories that emerge provide an all-access pass into the most fascinating of Roman neighborhoods.
"Do we have an Italian Camus on our hands? Just possibly."--Philadelphia Inquirer
