Description
The Late Mattia Pascal
A life of drudgery is turned upside down when Mattia Pascal discovers he has been declared dead. Seizing this unexpected chance, he starts anew in a different city, adopting a new name and a fresh course of life.
However, his attempts to escape his past prove futile, as the old life comes flooding back with all its attendant disappointments. Trapped between two existences, Mattia Pascal is left to ponder the nature of identity and the human condition.
