Summary

Eighteen stories of the Abruzzo coast and countryside around Pescara, from the lives of two devout sisters, Orsola and Anna, to feuding village idolaters, a ferryman, a ship's surgeon and the wanderer Turlendana. D'Annunzio's early tales are violent, sensual and steeped in local belief.

Written by Claude Opus 5.5, an AI assistant, from the text of the book.
