Literary Nonfiction. Italian Studies. Text in Italian only. Scholar Eugenio Ragni brings us an enlightening investigation into the early works of Giose Rimanelli. This is an analysis of Rimanelli’s controversial book, Il mestiere del furbo (1959), which caused Rimanelli to leave Italy for North America, never to return on a regular basis. Ragni engages in both a philological and deconstructive act in his intimate reading of the book itself and the aftermath of the publication both for Rimanelli and Italian literary culture at large._x000D_

“Un bel giorno—primi anni Sessanta—[Antonio] Tagliacarne insistette perché acquistassi un volume della Sugar, presentandomelo come un testo critico fuori del coro, caustico, onestamente polemico e in qualche punto dissacrante, sorretto però sempre da un ragguardevole patrimonio di letture e da una verve scrittoria di ottima qualità. Era Il mestiere del furbo, firmato da uno sconosciutissimo A.G. Solari, alias Giose Rimanelli.”—Eugenio Ragni, from the preface
