(In fact, the local dialect didn't even have a word for sewer.) Like other Sicilians, the villagers, seen by many Italians as \"bandits,\" \"dirt-eaters,\" and \"savages,\" had, in effect, been mute for centuries. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDolci's years of work broke this silence. The result is \u003ci\u003eSicilian Lives\u003c\/i\u003e, a book which reveals the intimate experiences and perceptions of a wide range of Sicilians, rural and urban, through voices that are sometimes frightening, but always fascinating and unexpected. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDanilo Dolci has collected a rich panorama of voices--the eloquent testimony of Sicilians who, at last, are speaking out to penetrate the most profound dilemmas of an impoverished land. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eWith a foreword by John Berger\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Sicilian Lives | Danilo Dolci | Paperback | 0394749383 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks F 1785909","offer_id":67703705108632,"sku":"1785909","price":13.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71uy1n39V4L.jpg?v=1791921357","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/sicilian-lives","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
