Little Misunderstandings of No Importance: And Other Stories

★★★★★
★★★★★
3.66 (730 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Antonio Tabucchi

Translated by: Frances Frenaye

The short story collection that launched Tabucchi to fame, reflecting on the uncertainties, memories, mistakes and mysteries of life

Eleven short stories pivoting on life's ambiguities and the central question they pose in Tabucchi's fiction: is it choice, fate, accident, or even, occasionally, a kind of magic that plays a decisive role in the protagonists' lives? Set in Paris, Lisbon, Madras and New York and blended with the author's wonderfully intelligent imagination, Tabucchi reflects on the elemental aspects of the human experience, exploring grief, uncertainty, adventure, memory and love.

'One of the most admired Italian writers of his generation' The Times
