The Dry Heart
Natalia Ginzburg, Frances FrenayeIn this powerful novella, Natalia Ginzburg’s writing is white-hot, fueled by rage, and stripped of any preciousness or sentimentality; she transforms an ordinary dull marriage into a rich psychological thriller that might pose the question: why don’t more wives kill their husbands?
"A murderous account of an unhappy marriage... From the beginning, you know how this story will end. Likewise, her prose seems at first to be arid, nearly parched. To say that she’s understated is itself a serious understatement. This slim, swift book - closer in length to a novella than a novel - was first published in Italy in 1947, but it feels chillingly modern in its structure, subject matter, and tone. Haunting, spare, and utterly gorgeous, Ginzburg’s novel is a classic of the wife-murders-husband variety." - Kirkus Reviews
