Between 1981, when the 60-year-old author won the prestigious Premio Campiello with his first novel »Diceria dell'untore«, and his death in 1996, Bufalino published novels, short stories, plays, poems, aphorisms, essays, anthologies, and various works on his native Sicily. The appeal and success of this motley list of works stems from the specific situation Bufalino found himself in, oscillating in his life and in his works between a congenital collective Sicilian identity and a personal identity of European dimensions gained by voracious reading, and constantly reflecting both these poles in his writing.
