Ernesto

Ernesto is sixteen years old and ready for life to begin. His curiosity leads him into an affair with an older man – the first step on his journey to adulthood. Full of tenderness, humour and warmth, Ernesto is a beautifully and empathetically rendered coming-of-age story set in fin de siecle Trieste. Written in 1953, when the author turned seventy, but not published until 1975, Ernesto is the great Italian poet`s most personal and confessional novel.
