Zeno's Conscience Hardcover - 2001
by Italo Svevo; William Weaver (Translator); Introduction by William Weaver
From the jacket flap
The first new translation in more than 70 years of the modern Italian classic discovered and championed by James Joyce.
"Zeno's Conscience (previously translated as "Confessions of Zeno) is at once a comedy of errors, a sly testimonial to the joys of procrastination, and a surpassingly lucid vision of human nature. Italo Svevo tells the story of a hapless, doubting, guilt-ridden man paralyzed by fits of despair and ecstasy and tickled by his own cleverness. His doctor advises him, as a form of therapy, to write his memoirs; and in doing so, Zeno reconstructs and ultimately reshapes the events of his life into a palatable reality for himself-a reality, however, founded on compromise, delusion, and rationalization.Absorbing and devilishly entertaining, "Zeno's Conscience is a pioneering psychoanalytic novel by one of the most important Italian literary figures of the 20th century.
