Questions, Resources, and General Banter - The Tartar Steppe

[Jim]

Dino Buzzati wrote his third novel, The Tartar Steppe, in 1938. He submitted the typescript in January 1939, but publication was delayed due to the whole Mussolini-Hitler tango…

The Cannongate edition, translated by Stuart C. Hood, claims that the first Italian edition was published in 1945. However, Wikipedia cites an earlier publication in 1940.

This one snuck up on me. So many chores recently that I haven't had much time for reading.

Starting it now, and hope to catch up over the weekend.
