Which Way I Fly is Hell

Meet two cutting-edge novelists exploring different sections of Italian society. In Edoardo Albinati’s prize-winning The Catholic School, a shocking act of sexual violence by former students of a prestigious Rome boys' school reveals the powers behind Italian bourgeois society. Teacher and journalist Alessandro D’Avenia shares What Hell is Not, a heart-rending story of deprivation and resilience in Mafia-run Palermo.

Vote for The Catholic School by Edoardo Albinati in the First Book Award.
