Reviews
 "This is not just a book; it offers consolation to the whole of humanity." --Giuseppe Verdi   "[Manzoni is] the only Italian literary figure whom his countrymen consider worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Dante . . . It is almost impossible to accept this book as a first novel. Through the virtuosity with which its creator deploys and refines his raw materials, the story of Renzo and Lucia . . . consistently transcends its considerable potential for sentimentality . . . The mélange of tones, styles and methods within the book makes the experience of reading it one of the most rewarding--and simultaneously most challenging--in nineteenth-century fiction." --from the Introduction by Jonathan Keates  , "The 19th-century Italian literary classic renowned for its vivid descriptions of the 1630 pestilence that gutted Milan." -- The New York Times "Compulsory reading for Italian high school students, The Betrothed gives a historically accurate account of the bubonic plague that wiped out a quarter of Milan's population in 1629-1631." -- Politico "This is not just a book; it offers consolation to the whole of humanity." -- Giuseppe Verdi

Synopsis
Set in Lombardy during the Spanish occupation of the late 1620s, The Betrothed tells the story of two young lovers, Renzo and Lucia, prevented from marrying by the petty tyrant Don Rodrigo, who desires Lucia for himself. Forced to flee, they are then cruelly separated, and must face many dangers including plague, famine and imprisonment, and confront a variety of strange characters - the mysterious Nun of Monza, the fiery Father Cristoforo and the sinister 'Unnamed' - in their struggle to be reunited. A vigorous portrayal of enduring passion, The Betrothed 's exploration of love, power and faith presents a whirling panorama of seventeenth-century Italian life and is one of the greatest European historical novels. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators., Set in Lombardy during the Spanish occupation of the late 1620s, The Betrothed tells the story of two young lovers, Renzo and Lucia, prevented from marrying by the petty tyrant Don Rodrigo, who desires Lucia for himself.

    LOVE These Shoes!! They are in in perfect condition and are exactly as pictured. Fast Shipping... I could have saved seller some money as I dispose of original shoe boxes and the package came in a larger box with padding as if the shoes were fragile... I dispose of original boxes, but even that showed minimal wear. You can tell this seller really takes care of their items and exceeds in effort to safeguard against any shipping damage. Great Value, Great Product, Smooth Transaction!
