This book was published in 1980 and contained nine short stories by Pavese, all written ca. 1936-38. The pieces had been translated into English in the 1960s.Five of the stories were narrated by men or a boy and concerned relationships with women, either the narrator's or someone he knew. Most of these relationships failed because of the man's perverse suspicion and resentment ("Wedding Trip") or the woman's infidelity ("The Idol," "The Leather Jacket," "Land of Exile"). In the tales featuring boys ("First Love," "The Leather Jacket"), the narrators were shown gradually becoming aware of adult ways and the world of women.The four other stories were told in the third person. Their subjects included men violently taking advantage of women ("Summer Storm") and an innkeeper who helped a couple attempting to flee the country ("Misogyny"). One story was told from the point of view of a woman from the countryside who hoped for more than she got from a brief affair with a cyclist ("The Cornfield"). Another followed a priest, the impoverished working boys at his church and a schoolmaster ("Festival Night"). It introduced the various characters' problems, set up various relations between them and then ended without resolution, reading like the early chapter of a novel. In the background of some of the stories were glimpses of the stink and boredom of peasant life.The pieces that struck me the most were "Wedding Trip," which described well a man like the narrator of Dostoevsky's "A Gentle Spirit," who realized too late his destruction of another's life and his own chance for happiness. "The Idol," which showed a loving man's pursuit of a woman of the town, though in this tale neither the man's passivity nor the woman's motivation seemed credible. And finally, "Summer Storm," a sharp tale that differed a bit from the other stories in that it contained less brooding and more action. Here too, the motivations were unclear but the events and description were memorable.The editor's introduction mentioned Pavese's own unhappy relationships and his preoccupation in his writing with emotional suffering. It claimed that in his short stories the women seemed incapable of love. This was often true, but not always; in "Wedding Trip" it was the man, not the woman, who had this problem.His stories seemed to me best at showing individuals' attempts to find love, doomed by their passivity, jealousy or the other's infidelity. Though in the tales taken as a whole, maybe these notes were struck a bit too often. Most were certainly melancholy, but lacked the lyricism and layers of symbolism he was able to develop when he wrote at length in, say, one of his most moving novels, The Moon and the Bonfire.
