An original, entertaining and restorative book that can confirm the reader's faith in the essential humanity of man, having the power of tradition, folklore and the conflict between Good and Evil. Don Camillo enters on a bicycle and rides straight into the reader's heart. These tragicomical stories are mostly situated in a fictional village on the Po called Boscaccio, immediately post-World War II and paint a clear picture of the Italy of that time. Boscaccio has a communist mayor named Peppone. He wants to realise the communist ideals but the Roman Catholic priest Don Camillo is desperately trying to prevent this. Yet despite their different views, this pair can count on each other in the fight against social injustice.
