The posthumously published collection Hermit in Paris draws together an array of Italo Calvino’s autobiographical writings that provide an illuminating and unexpectedly intimate portrait of one of the postwar era’s most inventive and fascinating writers. In these pages, Calvino recounts his experiences in Italy’s antifascist resistance, pays homage to his influences, traces the evolution of his literary style, and, in one of the book’s most humorous and entertaining sections, provides a wry commentary on his travels in the United States in 1959 and 1960.
