Publisher's Note
Examines the works of Italo Svevo, Alberto Moravia, Carlo Levi, Primo Levi, Natalia Ginzburg, and Giorgio Bassani, and shows how these writers combine in various measures their ancestral Jewish heritage with recent experiences of antisemitic persecution.

Industry Reviews
"The years between 1924 and 1974 may indeed have been a silver age for the Italian Jews, but for Italian prose literature the age was golden. This distinguished book,, which combines the expert skills of a seasoned historian with the understanding of a literary critic steeped in the language and literature of his subject, offers a challenging interpretation to those who already know these writers, and will serve as a masterly introduction for those whom it will inspire to make their acquaintance."
New York Review of Books - Bernard Knox

"Hughes has written a provocative book...A work attentive to nuance and pleasurable to read."
Times Literary Supplement - Adrian Lyttelton
