I've newly discovered Natalia Ginzburg, Sicilian novelist, anti-fascist and philosopher who wrote in the years following WWII. I'm reading "Happiness, as Such" on the recommendation of a learned friend and it's an absolute joy, with complex characters who would slot into any Sally Rooney novel despite being created in the 1970s. I intend to seek out all of her other novels.
