Author Description
Beppe Fenoglio (born Giuseppe Fenoglio) was an Italian writer. His work was published in a critical edition after his death, but controversy remains about his book
Johnny the Partisan
, often considered his best work, which was published posthumously and incomplete in 1968.
The works of Fenoglio have two main themes: the rural world of the Langhe and the partisan war; equally, the writer has two styles: the chronicle and the epos. His first work was in the neorealist style:
La paga del sabato
(this was published posthumously too in 1969).
The novel was turned down by Elio Vittorini who advised Fenoglio to carve out stories and then incorporate them into the
The twenty-three days of the city of Alba
(1952). These stories were a chronicle of the Italian Partisans or of rural life. One of such works was
La malora
(1954), a long story in the style of Giovanni Verga.
