The Notebooks of Serafino Gubbio

Shoot!

by Luigi Pirandello ...

Translated by C.K. Moncrieff ...

Serafino is an observer, an impersonal tool of a new industry based on make-believe. All he has to do is turn the handle of his camera and watch. He has no part in what is going on and is so removed from life ... Read more
