Pages : 241
Book Description
In 1869, following the death of Dellanna and Ethan, Kyzer grieved over the loss of his wife and little black baby. Would things have been any better for him if he had known the truth? Perhaps, he thought. He had fulfilled his promise to Dellanna. He shared the truth with their daughter about her possible genetic condition. One drop, just one drop of his blood, also labeled her as a Negro. It was hard for Kyzer to realize his mother Delilah was once a slave girl who gave him away at birth. He thought he understood the reasons when she tried to explain herself. She was scared. She was so young. She was alone without her dearly departed mother, Mama Rose. Kyzer and Delilah were together again after nearly thirty years, and now he knew all about himself.

Trick
Author: Domenico Starnone
Publisher: Europa Editions
ISBN: 1609454456
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
A weary man faces the ghosts of his past while caring for his grandson in Naples in this National Book Award finalist novel by the acclaimed author of Ties. In Tricks, Domenico Starnone presents an unusual duel between two formidable minds. One is Daniele Mallarico, a once-successful illustrator who feels his artistic prowess fading. The other is Mario, Daniele’s four-year-old grandson. Daniele is living in virtual solitude in Milan when his daughter asks him to come to Naples to babysit Mario for a few days. Shut inside his childhood home―an apartment in the center of Naples that is filled with memoires of Daniele’s past―grandfather and grandson match wits as Daniele heads toward a reckoning with his own ambitions and life choices. Meanwhile, Naples pulses outside, a wily, passionate city whose influence can never be shaken. As translator Jhumpa Lahiri says in her introduction, Trick is “an extremely playful literary composition” by the Strega Prize–winning novelist whom many consider to be one of Italy’s greatest living writers.
