Omschrijving

As A Man Grows Older is a novel by Italian author Italo Svevo, originally published in 1928. The story follows the life of Emilio Brentani, a struggling writer in his forties who is trapped in a stagnant marriage and a dead-end job. He becomes infatuated with a young woman named Angiolina, who he believes can provide him with the passion and inspiration he needs to reignite his creative spark.As Emilio pursues Angiolina, he becomes increasingly disillusioned with his own life and the choices he has made. He begins to question the meaning of love, art, and existence itself, as he struggles to reconcile his desires with the reality of his situation.Through Emilio's journey, Svevo explores themes of aging, desire, and the search for meaning in life. The novel is known for its psychological depth and its exploration of the human psyche, as well as its witty and satirical portrayal of the bourgeois society of early 20th century Italy.As A Man Grows Older is considered one of Svevo's most important works and a masterpiece of modernist literature. It has been translated into numerous languages and continues to be widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
