In 'The Signorina,' a flirtatious young woman struggles with her conflicting emotions and her parents' desire for a suitable match. In 'A Friend to the Wives,' the peerless Pia Tolosani leaves a trail of regret in the life of a former suitor. These stories, which were initially published, explore the depths of passion, whether it be faintly felt or unrequited, casting doubt on the very essence and existence of love. At the same time, they serve as a precursor to the themes and psychologically nuanced characters that Pirandello would later develop in his subsequent works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Pirandello's debut collection of short stories, 'The Wave,' a young man falls perilously in love with the tenant downstairs, who is engaged to be married.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 'The Signorina,' a flirtatious young woman struggles with her conflicting emotions and her parents' desire for a suitable match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 'A Friend to the Wives,' the peerless Pia Tolosani leaves a trail of regret in the life of a former suitor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese stories, which were initially published, explore the depths of passion, whether it be faintly felt or unrequited, casting doubt on the very essence and existence of love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the same time, they serve as a precursor to the themes and psychologically nuanced characters that Pirandello would later develop in his subsequent works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 300 x 129 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781847498113                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luigi Pirandello","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44093439803642,"sku":"9781847498113","price":5.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/5c0027c80a8f7de845c04d1de110e489.jpg?v=1627870544","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/loveless-love","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
