    In a picturesque Sicilian fishing village of the nineteenth century, the Malavoglia family stakes everything on a cargo of lupin nuts, hoping for a prosperous outcome. When disaster strikes and the cargo is lost at sea, a cascade of misfortunes befalls the family, leading to heart-wrenching tragedies. Revered as a masterpiece of social commentary within Italy yet overlooked by the broader world, The House by the Medlar Tree stands shoulder to shoulder with the works of Zola, Dickens, and Balzac among the greats of European literature. This poignant tale also inspired Luchino Viscontis 1948 film, La Terra Trema (The Earth Trembles), marking a significant contribution to cinematic history. - Summary by Tom Denholm
