Jan Kozma's English translation of Grazia Deledda's Ashes (Cenere, 1904) represents a rendering of the novel that embodies the Nobel Prize-winning author's mature style. Ashes is the story of Oli, a Sardinian unwed mother who is forced by poverty to abandon her only child. Raised by his genetic father, Ananias eventually attains social acceptability in the legal prefession yet cannot give up his obsessive search for his mother. When Oli realizes that public knowledge of her life in prostitution will jeopardize her son's impending marriage and professional success, she makes the ultimate maternal sacrifice to ensure his future. Deledda's novel explores the themes of filial duty, hypocritical societal expectations, the ravages of poverty, and maternal devotion.

Автор жөнүндө

Among the most honored women writers of modern Italy, Deledda wrote naturalistic or realistic novels, drawing upon her Sardinian background for material. Some critics hold, however, that in Deledda's formula often only the names of places and people serve to evoke a Sardinian atmosphere of strangeness. Her best works especially Elias Portolu (1903), Cenere (1904), and The Mother (1920) contain excellent portrayals of women. While her characters are complex, often dominated by an overwhelming sense of destiny and by nature's mythic powers, her narrative structures remain simple and classic. She was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1926.
