None of you will know who this man was; but he was one of Italy's greatest writers. He was the man who gave the mountain people of Northern Italy their voice in fiction, just before mass tourism changed it for ever; and his books on the Alpini and the war in Russia will not easily be forgotten. Riposa in pace, e grazie.
