I did put some Italian literature in my Fridaylist, last Friday. It's so cold these days that literature from warmer regions is welcome. It's remarkable that many Italian authors that I happen to like have names starting with a 'p': Pavese, Pirandello, Pittigrilli, Pasolini, Petrarca, da Ponte. Remarkable indeed, but that wasn't what I was going to tell. Even more remarkable are the covers of some Dutch translations in the twenties or thirties of last century. None of the two I'm showing you here mention the artist of the cover, yet they are pretty, aren't they?
