Paperback. Condition: Like New. A sharply beautiful and moving masterpiece about love and death by the classic Italian author of A Silence SharedUpon the death of her husband, Innocenzo Monti, Lalla Romano sought to distil the essence of their long life together. The result was In Farthest Seas: a piercingly intimate retelling of the first four years and final four months of their relationship, built from shard-like moments of connection and revelation.With precise artistry, Romano braids together seemingly minor details - the expressiveness of Innocenzo's hands, the beauty of his face in sleep, a fleeting instance of pallor - that come to reveal the barest truths of life and death.
