Erotically charged adult fable from bestselling Italian novelist.

The Young Bride is a scintillating and sensual novel about a young woman's ingress into a fantastically strange family. The hand of the young woman in question has been promised to the scion of the nobility. She is to make her preparations for marriage at the family's villa, where the inhabitants never seem to sleep. The atmosphere becomes surreal as the days pass and her presence on the family estate begins to make itself felt on her future in-laws.

Alessandro Baricco, loved by readers worldwide for his innovative take on magic realism, his atmospheric novels and memorable characters, is one of Italy's bestselling and most acclaimed authors. His previous novels have been published in the UK by Canongate and Vintage in the US. Ann Goldstein is one of the most accomplished translators from the Italian working today. Best known for her translations of Elena Ferrante's oeuvre, she has also brought to Anglo-Saxon readers novels by Primo Levi, Pierpaolo Pasolini, Alessandro Baricco and other classic and contemporary Italian writers.
